About Me

My Bio

My professional role is Education Technology Strategist for Des Moines University in the College of Health Sciences. I also teach in the Graduate programs for Health Care Administration and Public Health.

My resume of projects includes work in 12 countries. Nine of those trips were medical or surgical missions which provided reconstructive surgery, orthopedic surgery and pediatric cardiothoracic surgery. I enjoy working in complex, fast paced information rich environments. I am best known for my
creative leadership and my role as producer on documentary work and new media projects and the award winning web documentary Behind the Viewfinder — A Year in the Life of Photojournalism.

Between 2000 and 2004, I was producer and co-founder of New Media for Non Profits. I collaborated with dozens of talented people, driven by a vision to provide interactive new media for people and organizations who educate, make safe, and take care of other people
