About

I am an experienced college-level educator with more than 15 years of teaching experience in chemistry, including inorganic, organic, analytical, and physical chemistry. I have taught lecture, laboratory, and recitation courses and have worked with diverse student populations in higher education. My teaching experience includes developing and delivering course content, preparing laboratory activities, creating assessments, mentoring students, explaining complex scientific concepts in an accessible manner, and using technology and learning-management systems to support student learning.

I currently serve as an adjunct chemistry lecturer within the CUNY system and have previously taught chemistry at Borough of Manhattan Community College and Bronx Community College. My teaching philosophy emphasizes clear communication, practical application, critical thinking, student engagement, and creating an inclusive learning environment where students can confidently develop their scientific knowledge and problem-solving skills.

In addition to my teaching background, I hold a Doctor of Health Administration (DHA) and have professional experience in Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC), healthcare compliance, risk management, and information security. I am certified in CISA, CRISC, and CompTIA Security+, with knowledge and experience related to frameworks and requirements including HIPAA, NIST, ISO 27001, and GDPR.

This combination of teaching, healthcare administration, cybersecurity, risk management, and compliance experience allows me to bring an interdisciplinary perspective to the classroom. I am particularly interested in helping students connect academic concepts with real-world applications and developing the analytical, communication, and problem-solving skills needed for professional success.
