Practicum Director, Assistant Professor
Eastern Kentucky University
As someone who has recently transitioned from direct practice to higher education I see the great impact that can be made working with our students preparing for practicum. I have completed a BSW, MSW, CSW, as well as a MA - Higher Education Student Personal Services. With over eight years of practice experience when the opportunity to join the practicum education team arose I took it as I was able to utilize both my direct practice experience and my MA in higher ed to improve process and support students entering their practicum experiences. I have had the wonderful opportunity to work with students on both coordinating and supporting their practicum journeys.
Supporting students provides such a great opportunity to build lasting connections and support the next generation of social work practitioners and our agency partners serve the communities.
