Biography
As the Assistant Dean of Curriculum and Assessment, I am responsible for oversight of the PharmD curriculum at the College of Pharmacy, including ensuring compliance with accreditation standards, review and revision of the curriculum, and annual assessment of student outcomes. As a Clinical Professor of Pharmacy, my teaching responsibilities span the didactic and experiential programs. I teach in the EBM thread for P1-P3 students and lead the P3 ethics class. I’m also the lead faculty for the large-scale IPE class that has over 500 students from 5 health-science programs. As a clinical pharmacy specialist in medication use policy, I am responsible for formulary management and medication policy in the ambulatory infusion areas.
