As the Associate Dean for Academic Affairs (ADAA), I serve as a leader and champion in the areas of academic support, faculty development, and curricular innovation reporting to the Chief Academic Officer (CAO) and updating the VP and President. Role responsibilities also include: leadership, management, and oversight of all academic affairs, including but not limited to: maintenance, revision, or deletion of curriculum, courses, sequences of courses and programs of study offered by the University; all managerial activities related to university curriculum (including periodic assessments, required reporting, and accreditation/licensure requirements); and the support of faculty and students in the delivery of that curriculum (including undergraduate and graduate academic advising, student performance reviews and discipline, grade appeals, and other ADR/problem resolution).  As ADAA, in collaboration with the CAO, am also responsible for overseeing student orientation and retention efforts; assisting the Assoc.

Collaboratively with the ADAC, I jointly supervise office support staff, and collaborate with the President, CAO, Dean of School of Law and other institutional personnel in strategic planning and general management of academic affairs.  I coordinate, oversee, and assess Academic Support programs and processes for the JD and University Programs; serve as main point of contact for all student-facing academic and academic support communications; and mentor as academic advisor to students in the JD, Legal Studies, Criminal Justice and Business Administration programs.
