      ++I am an experienced nurse educator who has taught in the classroom, simulation laboratory, and clinical setting. I have even taken on administrative roles as interim Nursing Director and Assistant Nursing Director. My assignments have covered a broad range because I feel comfortable teaching nearly any subject. I have taught obstetrics, pediatrics, pharmacology, leadership and management, NCLEX preparation, and fundamentals. ++During my time at AmeriTech, one of our main goals as a faculty was to improve the percentage of students passing nursing boards (NCLEX-RN) on their first attempt. As chair of the curriculum committee, I needed to study the statistics, discover patterns, research best practices, detail a plan for success, and implement the plan throughout the program. The results? Our school is one of the top schools in the state for first-time pass rates. Show less

      I bridge the gap between faculty and educational technology, particularly our learning management system (Canvas). Instructors in our nursing, MA, OTA, and dental lab tech programs know that I understand their jobs, whether on ground or online, and I can help them utilize the LMS to its fullest extent. I also help students adjust to the online and blended college environments and help design user-friendly, inviting online classrooms!
