Brief Biography

I am a Tenured Associate Professor in the Health Sciences Department at California State University Northridge. I teach courses in both the undergraduate and graduate programs in Health Administration, where I can share my vast career experiences from both the clinical and administrative sides of health services. I also serve as the Graduate Coordinator for our Master in Health Administration program. My research interests are in the areas of interprofessional collaboration; the imposter syndrome in health administration/health professionals; culturally competent and appropriate communication amongst health professionals and healthcare leaders; LGBTQ+ health-related services and the health administrator’s role; and lastly, improving instruction via innovative techniques for health sciences students. I enjoy working with my students, getting to know them, and helping them transform their lives by realizing their potential. I am dedicated to helping students and others reach their potential and embracing authenticity.
