Director of Admissions - Cross State Team @Unitek Learning

US

In addition to leading our amazing Regional Admissions Hub Team, I’ve recently been selected to oversee our new Cross-State Admissions Initiative, a targeted effort to address the nursing shortage in California.This initiative supports students who are eager to start a BSN program—even if it means flying to another state temporarily to pursue their dreams. It’s a creative, mission-driven solution to a real workforce crisis, and I’m honored to help drive it forward.Helping future nurses find a pathway to licensure—no matter where they start—is incredibly rewarding. This work reminds me that innovation and access in education can directly impact patient care and community health.
