My work in health education and promotion, and prevention programs for minority and migrant populations in the US has received professional recognition: the 2010 Nursing/Allied Health Employee of the Year Award, the 2006 Jaguar Award in Recognition of Professional Excellence, Healthy People 2010 Projects Award, US-Mexico Border Health Commission Models of Excellence, Colorado Governor's Recognition for Prevention Programs, the Passion for Justice Award, Recognition for Serving Children & Families in Need, and the South Texas Promotora Association Recognition for Dedication, Service, and Support.
I dedicate most of my time to look for creative ways to deliver and disseminate information to the healthcare workforce on minority health issues and to connect academia with communities to help reduce health disparities. |

I have 39 years of experience as a professional nurse and 14 years as a nursing educator. I have been approved by the Texas State board of Nursing as Director of VN programs with four unique sites. I have also served as both a Director of Nurses and Director of education in a hospital, and was the manager of a critical care unit for 20 years.
I have led vocational nursing program development and growth from 50 students and 3 faculty at one site to160 students, 16 faculty and 4 support staff at 3 sites. In my positions, I have been involved with all nursing and allied health instructional programs, support services and student services as well as with building and maintaining strong ties with the community.
I am always excited to be a part of the creative process that growth and change brings to better serve my community and college.
