 Outside of my research, my professional goals are centered upon student success, professional development programming, and a commitment to fostering diversity in higher education.

In my current role I facilitate professional development programming for  S-STEM ASSETS, a program which supports STEM undergraduate students transferring to Stony Brook University from regional community colleges.
