I wear two major hats at the College of Medicine. I serve as our Associate Director of our Pre-Clinical Curriculum, which means that I work with our deans and other curriculum leaders to manage and oversee our pre-clinical curriculum for medical and PA students. I also supervise and oversee our team of curriculum support staff, our curriculum managers, our Learning Communities manager and our Clinical Skills Assessment Program staff.

My other hat is that of Fall M1/PA1 Curriculum Manager. I work with our first semester course directors to schedule and organize all learning activities for the five courses our students complete during that first semester. I work with students directly to help them succeed with the transition to medical school and help them navigate any challenges that might happen alongside their school experience.

As mentioned above, I work directly with our entire class of medical and PA students to help them navigate a difficult transition and help them additionally navigate things when life events happen while in school (e.g., family members becoming ill, students themselves facing an illness or injury, difficulty transitioning, organizational skills, etc…).

I had a challenging college experience and path to finding my career. I am always glad to support students through struggles and wish I had availed myself of resources available to me at the time. Happy to help as I can or just be a listening ear!
