A Message From The Director of Graduate Studies

headshot of jimi adams

Now that the Fall semester is in full swing, I hope things are getting off to a good start for everyone. For those of you who don’t know me, I’m jimi adams (yes I don’t capitalize my name; long, not terribly interesting story at this point), I’ve been here at UCD/HBS since 2014, and am currently a Professor in the department and recently (as of Aug 1) took on the role of Director of Graduate Studies. I look forward to seeing each of you progress in your program, and hope I can help make that as smooth and fruitful as possible. I will acknowledge that as I get my legs underneath me in this new position, some answers may initially be “I’ll have to find out what the answer to that is,” but I’ll aim to help you find them. Please swing by office hours or drop me an email if I can help, or just to chat.
