I am delighted to serve as the interim Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs at 好色先生, Dominguez Hills. In this role, I oversee all academic units, including our six colleges, the University Library, and various academic centers, institutes, and instructional programs.聽 I work closely with the Academic Senate and other stakeholders to ensure excellence in teaching, scholarship, creative activities, and service in order to enact our mission, vision, and values in ways that allow us to serve as an inclusive model urban university.

As a first-generation college student, I know first-hand how hard it can be to navigate higher education in a changing world.聽 As Provost, it is my job to make sure that students, educators, families, and communities are supported to grow, thrive, and lift each other up.聽 We do this through academic programs that:

  • engage students in academic inquiries that are shaped by their identities and experiences,
  • build a sense of belonging, supporting students to advocate for themselves and their communities,
  • foster career-connected and community-engaged learning, and
  • contribute to solving the world's most complex problems.

I am honored to be part of this community, as we work together to uphold the core values of public higher education: a steadfast commitment to excellence and innovation, the development of strong university-community partnerships, and, above all, ensuring student success at every level.
