I am committed to developing scholarly practitioners who strive to connect research, theory, and applied professional knowledge in order to create transformational leadership opportunities. I am proud to contribute to an EdD program that positions practitioners to have a positive impact on the communities, organizations, and institutions they serve.I am committed to a culture of diversity, inclusion, and equity to ensure a supportive learning environment for all students/candidates. My experience demonstrates a proven history of developing and overseeing curricular and co-curricular programs in teaching, research, and service through experiential learning, strategic planning, responsible budgeting, and student engagement. I enjoy collaborating to implement University-wide initiatives with a focus on learner outcomes, faculty and staff development, outreach, alumni and community relations, and athletics in order to enhance student development, promote retention, and enrich the academic experience. I believe in a team-based approach to teaching and the delivery of student life programming through creative and engaging modalities.
