Welcome to My Portfolio

Picture
    Thanks for taking the time to visit my electronic portfolio. This site is organized to showcase my present work in the field of education. Specifically, I'm excited to show you examples of noncredit programs at Macomb Community College I've developed to assist older students return to the classroom and to train students for work in the field of aging. Hopefully, you will also understand how these programs impact faculty, students and the community at large. 

    For an understanding of how I determined the need for specialized programs targeting older adults, please click on "my students" to read an executive summary of an institutional research study done to guide our programming decisions. To glimpse the types of programs and events aimed at either older students or the professionals serving them, click on "program development" or "event production" under the "showcase of work" menu. Finally, to see some of the impact of my work, please click on "testimonials" to read what others have to say.

    This is my first attempt at creating a web presence for any purpose. This portfolio is a work in progress but one I hope to expand and enhance as my technical skills improve. I am dedicated to working on ways to improve the image of aging and to provide ways for seasoned students to feel welcome and thrive in academia. This portfolio is another way I can promote this vision!
