Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs Professor of Nursing
I joined the nursing faculty at SUNY Plattsburgh in 1997 after a career that included
working as a staff nurse with a specialty in medical-surgical and intensive care nursing.
During my 10 years in nursing practice, I worked in settings ranging from intensive
care to pediatrics to home care. I have educated future nurses for over 20 years at
SUNY Plattsburgh and served in the chairperson role for six of those years, leading
a successful reaccreditation visit. I bring a wealth of experience in curriculum development,
assessment, accreditation, and general education to my current role as associate vice
president for academic affairs. I have always loved teaching! I like to solve problems
to make things better. I am committed to student success and work to contribute to
that goal everyday.
