Since 2003 I have been teaching Finance and Economics both online and in the classroom,
and I have spent the past two decades working on the Internet in several capacities.
- PhD, Finance (Investments, Corporate, Behavioral), Florida Atlantic University
- MA, Economics (Austrian School, Public Choice), George Mason University
- BS, Modern Language Education (German), Florida International University
In the early 1990s, I was the first webmaster for a Washington, DC, area foundation that helps
free-market advocacy groups worldwide connect with supporters. During this time I traveled several
times each year to lecture to students, business executives, and heads of state on how the nascent
Internet enables the open markets, transparency, and free flow of ideas that they were advocating.
How true that was! If anyone had suggested back then the political change in the Middle East made
possible by mobile phones, Facebook, and Twitter, people would have laughed.
Later, I became a financial cryptography consultant on several online payment system startups during
the height of the Dot.Com Era. Following the 9/11 tragedies, regulatory and statutory changes radically
altered the landscape, and our industry fell off the edge of the earth. I then returned to my roots in
education and served as Dean of Online Business Programs for Keiser University in Florida. After three
years, I returned as an adult learner to complete my PhD in Finance.
Now, I balance my time between teaching online and building Pecuniology.com, which is dedicated to promoting economic and financial
literacy worldwide.
A native of Miami, I live once again in South Florida, and I have lived in rural Georgia, the New York
City area, Northern Virginia, Los Angeles, Southern Germany, West Berlin, Anguilla (Eastern Caribbean),
and the Bahamas. I speak German fluently and enough Spanish to get by, and I can read several related
languages in my fields.
Yours,
Dr. Charles W. Evans
