STAFF PROFILE
"Throughout my career, I've been dedicated to higher education, with a passion for promoting student success and leveraging technology to enhance the learning experience. My journey began on the student affairs side, where I supported various aspects of student life, including academic records, student services, and advocacy for students with disabilities. As I worked directly with students, I recognized the importance of balancing technology with personalized support through my "high tech and high touch" approach. This philosophy guided my work in implementing student information and learning management systems, which aimed to streamline processes and improve student outcomes.
As I explored the intersection of technology and education, I became increasingly interested in accreditation and academic quality. This led me to shift my focus from student support to academic planning and success initiatives within the classroom. I worked closely with accreditors and faculty to develop sound assessment practices, measuring student learning and promoting a culture of continuous improvement.
Currently, as Director of Assessment and Program Evaluation in the College of Health and Human Services at GovState, I collaborate with faculty and staff to define student success and gather evidence to inform our efforts. By combining assessment work with strategic planning, we foster a culture of continuous improvement, driving student success both inside and outside the classroom.
In addition to my administrative work, I've had the privilege of teaching undergraduate and graduate students for over 15 years. I believe that the classroom is a living laboratory, where assessment practices can be put into action. My teaching portfolio includes courses in cross-cultural psychology, industrial/organizational psychology, research methodology, statistics, and assessment of student learning.
My academic background includes an undergraduate degree in psychology, pursued master's degrees in industrial/organizational psychology and higher education administration, and a PhD in leadership for education with a concentration in higher education. My doctoral research explored the intersection of industrial/organizational psychology and learning science, focusing on college faculty and administrator perceptions of FERPA training programs. I'm excited to bring my expertise and passion for education to my work, driving student success and promoting a culture of continuous improvement."
