Charlene holds B.A. and M.A. degrees from Simon Fraser University, and is a provincially certified teacher with a British Columbia Professional Teaching Certificate. She has written several economics course manuals, and designed and delivered distance education courses. Charlene is the co-author of several academic papers, and a recipient of an award for excellence in teaching. She currently teaches various introductory and advanced economics courses to (very bright) students in the Financial Management and Advanced Studies in Business programs in the School of Business at the British Columbia Institute of Technology in Burnaby, B.C. Previously, Charlene worked as an economist with Bell Canada where she analyzed industrial strategy and competition policy. She was also a member of a collaborative research team at the Centre for Trade Policy and Law in Ottawa, which quantified the effects of North American free trade on Canadian manufacturing industries, and assessed the significance of international technology transfers between Canadian and U.S. high tech firms. Besides her interest in Canadian industrial policy and international trade, Charlene has a wide range of other fascinations: photography, art, architecture, wine, fitness, and the stock market. However, Charlene has discovered that her recreational activities are – most unfortunately – subject to an irascible and unsympathetic budget constraint.
