Professional Leadership—Special Populations program at the University of Houston. Her career experiences have been situated within community colleges, universities, public schools, early childhood centers, community organizations, and non-profits.  While completing her doctorate she engaged with Improvement Science (IS). She brings a sociological perspective to the application of IS for teamwork. She is co-author of a chapter in Teaching Improvement Science in Educational Leadership (2021), called “Empowering Incremental Change Within a Complex System: How to Support Educators to Integrate Improvement Science Principles Across Organizational Levels.” Presently she translates IS to the development of higher education curriculum for pre-service and in-service educators and administrators. She also teaches professional and academic writing and communication to doctoral students. Finally, she is an alumnus of two graduate-level programs (spaced 20 years apart) that were organized for a hybrid/online learning environment. She is excited to co-lead the online/hybrid special interest section of CPED to support faculty, now and into the future, whose programs engage with learners virtually.
