College of Nursing Faculty and Staff
Fostering Academic Excellence
Nursing education is continually changing as health care technologies advance. Our faculty and staff are attentive to these changes and work to prepare student nurses to meet the demands of a more globally aware and diverse society. Our faculty stay up-to-date on teaching methodologies and skills as well as laboratory equipment to be current with contemporary nursing practice and to prepare our students for the future of health care.
To provide our students with an engaging and innovative learning environment, we cultivate partnerships within higher education, regional and national health care organizations and state agencies to assure quality education and to develop curriculum that improves health and health care.
Associate Dean for the College of Nursing and Health Sciences. Also teach in the Nursing graduate programs.
I have 3 areas of teaching and research which are: care for older adults, nursing and health informatics and Healing Touch. When I have some empty space, you can find me digging dirt in one of my many gardens. My life long goal is to build healing and healthy environment wherever I go.
