Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

Students and teachers are able to achieve their personal best when they work and live in an environment where they feel included and valued. In all my teaching and research, I strive to build and nurture a culture that values inclusiveness.

Diversity and equity in higher education is still in a growing state, and there are many ways we can improve. I personally believe that creating an environment that fosters inclusion and diversity requires participation on both an institutional as well as a personal level. I continue to try and expand my knowledge on these topics, as well as participate in programs and committees that can help promote these issues at a larger level.
