Instructor Professional Biography

My name is Dr. Nicole Runyon and I am very much looking forward to working with all of you. I live in Northern Michigan (in the Northern Lower Peninsula). I have a passion – facilitating and teaching online! It's a great opportunity for me to share my experiences while at the same time learning from all of you.

I have taught both onground and online for the last 9 years. My areas of focus have been human resources, communications, marketing, management, administration and business. I enjoy teaching online because I learn so much from each individual student! By sharing experiences we can all learn from each other and apply what we've learned to our own professions. In addition, I have a passion for online learning because it gives so many non-traditional students an opportunity to complete degrees.

Previous to teaching online full time, I was the Director of Human Resources and Branch Operations at BFG Supply, Co. BFG is a supplier of greenhouse goods throughout the Mid-West. I built the Human Resources department from the ground up and then found myself in charge of 10 remote locations. This was a challenging position and really helped broaden my operations experiences.

Previous to this, I was the Director of Human Resources for a dot com called All Outdoors in Traverse City, MI. Although my title was HR, I wore many hats and worked in each department of the organization. This was perhaps one of the best jobs ever. We had a creative "team" environment. I helped build the company from the ground up but,

We apply and integrate analytical techniques from accounting, finance, management, marketing, economics, and related business disciplines.

    Over the last few years, online tutoring sites have also really gained popularity. The reason is that people just don't have the time or the money to spend at an actual tutoring center. Online tutoring is an ideal solution as it can be done at home, on a computer or mobile device, and is usually a much cheaper alternative. Also, online tutoring or teaching is a nice way for educators to earn some extra money doing what they love to from the comfort of their own home and setting their own schedule.
