Professional Summary
The Simulation Center is dedicated to introducing, developing and evaluating a variety of clinical skills for students in the health care professions. I joined the staff of the Simulation Center in 2006 as a program coordinator. During this time, in addition to my other duties, I was responsible for the ordering of all simulation materials, supplies and also the contracts and payment of our 60+ standardized patients. In 2009, I moved into the role of Program Manager. My experience as the program coordinator and also my strong organizational skills have provided me with the ability to interact with faculty, staff, standardized patients and students in the planning and successful execution of the many simulation sessions we host.
With the other members of our TEAM, I look forward to serving the learners who pass through our Center and with providing them with the best possible simulation experience to meet course objectives.
