Teaching, Lectures & Academic Engagement

Speaking & Teaching

I speak and teach on leadership, emotional intelligence, healthcare quality, health equity, and community-driven solutions. My sessions emphasize real-world application, reflective leadership, and data-informed decision-making—connecting technical concepts to people in a way that is practical, relatable, and immediately usable.

I have presented at national conferences, including the NCQA Health Innovation Summit, served as a featured panelist for NAHSE Washington, DC and NAHSE Baltimore, and delivered guest lectures at Georgetown University and other academic institutions. My speaking topics span human-centered leadership, emotional intelligence in healthcare, quality improvement and accreditation, health equity integration, and community transformation.

My academic preparation and professional experience allow me to teach across:


• Leadership, Healthcare Administration, and Business

• Public Health and Environmental Health
• Biology, Chemistry, and Allied Health

My teaching philosophy centers on empathy, cultural responsiveness, and equipping learners to lead meaningful change in their organizations and communities.
