Personal Statement
Prior to coming to UNM last fall, I was the residency program director at UVM for the past 5 years and associate program director for 7 years prior to that. From an administrative perspective, I gave oversight to recruitment and advancement of our 21 pediatric residents (7 per year). I mentored and monitored their professional development including biannual individualized learning plan meetings and progress in their subcompetency milestones. I was responsible for managing the overall curriculum and training to ensure compliance with ACGME RRC regulations, and at the same time that it was innovative, challenging, and engaging. Finally, I was responsible for our programmatic self-study, which was an iterative accreditation process that required adherence to improvement science methodology and included initiatives in the domains of faculty development, wellness and resilience, and diversity and inclusion. My involvement here at UNM looks to be similar as I have been selected to be an associate program director which started this past January.
