Hello July! I can't even believe how quickly June flew by but I am beyond excited and proud to be part of Old Dominion University, especially as we celebrate the incredible achievement of the Macon and Joan Brock Virginia Health Sciences at #ODU. This remarkable initiative includes the EVMS School of Health Professions, the Joint School of Public Health, the Ellmer College of Health Sciences, the Ellmer School of Nursing, and the Eastern Virginia School of Medicine- now making up the largest health sciences center in #Virginia, offering more than 50 degrees! What a bright future ahead for health sciences at ODU. It is a great week for fireworks! 🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆 #ProudMoment #HealthcareExcellence #CommunityOriented #ODU #HealthSciences #MedicalEducation #Research #PatientCare #DiversityAndInclusion #ContinuousImprovement #EVMS #life

In 2019, I presented data at a national conference in St. Louis Reintegration into the Workforce: Bringing in Labor off the Sidelines. This session focused on employing the addicted (the basis of my passion for researching #opioids and the #economy) and the incarcerated. My new professional focus is the impact of #internships. The power of internships includes mission, a purpose pipeline, financial freedom, and personal achievement and satisfaction. Wonderful to read other stories of the life changing power of work based learning! https://lnkd.in/eT_SWaK3 #life #purpose #jobsforall

Happy 4th of July! 🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆"You have to love a nation that celebrates its independence every July 4th, not with a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who file by the White House in a show of strength and muscle, but with family picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die from happiness."– Erma Bombeck Doesn't this "oldie" say it all? Wishing you a joyous and safe Independence Day (we are very lucky to have a long holiday weekend at #ODU) filled with celebrations, gratitude, and reflection on the values that unite us. Enjoy the fireworks and cherish the time spent with your family and friends- and watch the potato salad! 😂 #life #virginia #july4th

Its only a week to go to sunny #phoenix for the 2024 National Association of Colleges and Employers national conference. Getting the inside scoop on Capital One's unique onsite #internship program with campus incubators, learning about new #firstgen internship initiatives and integrating #data storytelling into internship curriculum are all at the top of my conference to- do list. https://lnkd.in/eG_Kn6Ww One big key takeaway on national trends?
