Kristena P. Gaylor


Welcome to my Faculty Homepage! I am excited to join the team of faculty at the Mississippi College School of Business. I teach Economics and Management courses. I enjoy working with students and helping them to understand how management and economic principles relate to their business careers as well as their personal lives. You are welcome to stop by and visit me in my office in Self Hall 200B or send me an email at kgaylor@mc.edu

I have taught in higher education for the past ten years at Belhaven University, Alcorn State University and Jackson State University. You may find my research published in the Journal of Academy of Business and Economics (2006), the Journal of Interdisciplinary Research (2002) and the Journal of Behavioral and Applied Management (forthcoming). My research interests include topics in the field of organizational behavior and adult learners. When I am not teaching and mentoring students, I enjoy spending time with my husband, Tony, and our two sons Samuel (8) and Kristopher (5).
