Our Team

The faculty and staff of the MHA program are unlike any other. After completing my admissions interview and getting to know the MHA team, I was fully captivated by their charisma, professionalism, and dedication to this program. Through their diverse backgrounds and unique experiences, I truly felt advocated for with respect to my educational, professional, and personal goals. With each lecture, lab, and review session, it became obvious that professors were supplying students with the skills to ensure their success here and beyond, while the staff dedicate themselves to supporting students' personal endeavors and wellness throughout their graduate education.
