I am a 30+ year faculty member in the College of Nursing (CON) and have done research in The Gambia mostly focusing on rural nursing and farming injuries. My PhD is in epidemiology and I also teach a global health nursing course. In the CON I am the global health coordinator for visiting scholars and facilitate student practicum sites in other countries. I also work with other colleges outside the US in facilitating partnerships with their nursing programs and assist with visiting Fulbright scholars etc.
