Biographical Sketch
Hello!
I’m William Joshua (Josh) Tolleson. I am proud to be a Faculty member with ULM’s College of Business and Social Sciences. I am an Instructor of Management within the School of Management as of August 2021.
Prior to being an Instructor, I proudly served as the Recruiter for Online Programs with ULM from 2017 until August 2021. I’ve also worked in positions related to Sales, Management, Marketing, Project Management, and various Business-related venues in the Monroe-West Monroe area.
I am a proud ULM alumnus! I earned a Bachelors in Mass Communications with a concentration in Management/Marketing from ULM in 2006. After graduating from ULM in 2006, I worked as an Account Executive for KTVE-KARD from 2006-2009 before returning back to school in March 2009. I earned a Master's in Business Administration online in 2011 and have proudly worked in the Monroe-West Monroe community since!
I am a diehard Chicago Cubs fan! I also enjoy traveling, going to the gym (not always successfully!) and supporting ULM Athletics. I am involved with the Monroe and West Monroe Chambers of Commerce, respectively.
