My current position is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Educational Administration and Policy in the College of Education at the University of Florida. My primary research interests are in academic faculty retention and development, diversity issues of gender and ethnicity in higher education, evaluation and assessment, and research methodology. Specifically, I utilize advanced quantitative methods to analyze National Center for Education Statistics databases.
I earned my PhD from the Center for the Study of Higher and Postsecondary Education (CSHPE) at the University of Michigan. Prior to attending the University of Michigan, I worked as the Team Leader for enrollment management and Academic Advisor at the University of Florida. I also earned my Masters of Science in Higher Education from The Florida State University and Bachelors of Science in Psychology from the University of New Orleans. I am bilingual and a native born Cuban.
