Welcoming A New Member At MNA!

Dr. Steven Petritis, an extraordinary Ph.D. holder, is not just your average education researcher. He’s a dynamic force in the realm of education, program evaluation, and STEM curriculum design. With a penchant for precision and a passion for education, Steven brings an unparalleled level of expertise to the table.

His journey through academia, from the hallowed halls of the University of Arizona to the innovative landscapes of Michigan State University, has been nothing short of remarkable. Along the way, he’s become a maestro in both qualitative and quantitative research, transforming data into actionable insights.

But there’s more to Steven than just numbers and theories. He’s a true aficionado of all things sports, with a particular love for baseball that adds an exciting dimension to his vibrant personality. Whether he’s dissecting the intricacies of education research or discussing the latest baseball stats, Steven’s enthusiasm shines through.

We’re thrilled to announce that Steven will soon be joining our company, and we couldn’t be more excited to have him on board to work with us on a few STEM Education initiatives for Minority Serving Institutions (MSIs). Get ready to witness a rising star in education program evaluation, as Steven applies his mixed-methods research methodologies to pave the way for evidence-based recommendations that will revolutionize the educational landscape for students and teachers at all grade levels.

Welcome, Steven!
