Kenneth White, Ph.D.

In August 2016, I earned my Ph.D. in Consumer Sciences with a focus on Family Resource Management from The Ohio State University and left Columbus, OH to start my academic career as an Assistant Professor of Financial Planning. My research interests include financial education, socialization, and well-being of historically marginalized families and individuals. My work can be seen in core financial planning journals such as Journal of Financial Planning, Journal of Financial Therapy, Journal of Family and Economic Issues, Family and Consumer Sciences Research Journal, Journal of Financial Counseling and Planning, and Financial Services Review. I enjoy collaborating across disciplines, and with colleagues at universities and colleges nationwide. I often conduct research with current and former students and I teach financial planning courses in the Norton School’s CFP® Board Registered Program.
