Awesome
The assignments can be difficult but she's very nice on giving grades. The class is pass or fail. She's very sweet and she will give you really good feedback. She is the reason why I'm a better writer now.

PhD in Agricultural Leadership, Education, and Communications. My research integrates the disciplines of Emergency Management, Risk Communications, and Public Health to develop an improved method for communicating emergent crisis-related information to an increasingly diverse population. My specific area of interest is analyzing the potential cultural differences in an individual's decision-making and information processing when faced with different types of hazards/disasters. By defining these processes, emergency managers should be able to improve risk and crisis communications efforts and save additional lives.

Instructional Assistant Professor
I am Instructor of Record and course coordinator for the Public Health Writing and Narrative Approach to Public Health writing intensive courses for the Public Health Studies undergraduate program. In addition, I teach an undergraduate course in Public Health Emergency Preparedness. This led to developing my International Public Health Preparedness study abroad in Germany program, which launched summer 2018. At the graduate level, I teach Disaster Epidemiology, as well as Quantitative Methods for the Integrated Masters in Public Health Core Curriculum. I use a modified flipped classroom approach to student learning. Areas of pedagogical interest for me include Team-Based Learning, Project-Based Learning, and interactive classroom and curriculum design.
Program Promotion Coordinator
Primarily developed and implemented strategic marketing plans for health center service lines (i.e. cardiac, rehabilitation, cancer, women's services). Worked with multiple media outlets (print, broadcast, electronic) to manage a comprehensive media plan. Implemented the Spirit of Women program.
Communications Manager
In January 2014, I took advantage of an opportunity to move to half time employment to focus on my doctoral research. While continuing to work in the same department (writing, editing, media relations) and in support of the new full time communications leader, I have made significant strides in designing a research project that will advance the discipline of risk communications. As of August 2015, I took on an additional position as an Instructor of Writing Intensive courses in the new Public Health Studies undergraduate program in the Texas A&M School of Public Health.
