Dr. Rose W. Chu is an associate professor of the Urban Teacher Program at Metropolitan State University in Saint Paul, Minnesota. In recent years, she has become known by friends and colleagues as the “queen of recycling” and is unapologetic about her trash digging practices! As a result of her involvement with the project, the Sweet Potato Comfort Pie Initiative has now gone green! Rose holds a Ph.D. in Industrial and Systems Engineering from Georgia Institute of Technology and was formerly a research scientist at Honeywell Corporation. She brings over 20 years of rich and diverse experiences and leadership in the private sector, in school settings, higher education, public service and nonprofits. Rose is passionate about “connecting the dots” to ensure equitable access to quality education for underrepresented and underserved learners.
