Degree & from where it was received:

MS in Nursing from The University of Connecticut.

Courses you teach: Nursing as it relates to self-care across the lifespan with a clinical focus on Pediatrics.

Accomplishments (personal or professional): I have worked at HCC for 15 years, which means I have experienced many changes of faculty & curriculum. I value the continued quality of the Nursing program, to which I have contributed, & the fact that we continue to serve the community with our many successful graduates.

Favorite thing about teaching: Meeting new learners each semester, who help me refine my style.

Memorable moment at HCC: My most memorable moment happened in the clinical setting. I witnessed a four year old African American patient with asthma awaken to see her African American student nurse at her bedside. This was a wonderful mentoring moment for this child and a reminder of the value of my work.

Teaching philosophy: Pedagogy is very important. Continuing to learn from students is equally important.
