伊利沙米. McAlexander, MPA

Program Director of Business Administration, Assistant Professor of Management

Prior to coming to Mary, I worked for the State of North Dakota for six years. 在那段时间里, I was honored to be given the chance to start my higher education career as an adjunct professor at the Gary Tharaldson 学校 of Business. After teaching a business course for a couple years, I was provided the opportunity to teach management courses full time at GTSB.

From my first day on campus, I truly believed I had found my calling in life. The classroom is my favorite place to be. I am passionate about student engagement — I always try to incorporate diverse learning activities and opportunities for group work into class time. I feel we learn best through a combination of hands-on discovery and input from the people around us. I want my students to feel comfortable and have a sense of community belonging in my classes.

I was born and raised in North Dakota and have been a resident of Bismarck and a member of the Mary community since 2013. I am currently pursuing my doctoral degree in business administration through the University of Mary. I am a lover of fun facts, puzzles, watching documentaries, and traveling.
