In the tradition of qualitative research (Merriam, 1998; Yin, 2003), multiple data sources
were collected. Initially, a demographic survey was sent to each participant to complete
electronically. The primary source of data was secured through a semi-structured interview
protocol. A third source of data collection included a focus group that provided an opportunity to
corroborate my emerging analysis. Finally, my own researcher journal served as an additional
source to supplement the interviews and the focus group.
