My name is Vitaliy, and I am an Assistant Professor of Management and Entrepreneurship at the University of Louisville, where I conduct research on family firms, entrepreneurs, and entrepreneurial teams, with a keen interest in replication studies. Holding a PhD from Mississippi State University, I am passionate about research because, at the very least, the research process is FUN. This enthusiasm drives my academic and professional pursuits in the field of entrepreneurship, family business, and management.
