Alright, now its time to do some stalkinβΒ
I couldnβt find any staff bios directly on the nursing page, but i did eventually find them. Here are the three professors I narrowed it down too!Β
Diane Monslavais is an associate professor at the School of Nursing. I couldnβt find her office info or a picture, but i did find her contact info plus a lot of personal information including her education history, achievements, community involvement, and some research she has done. The information I found wasnβt on the nursing home page, however. I chose Diane Monslavais because of her research topics. She seems to have an interest in cultural diversity and minorities in the nursing field. I think she could be a good choice to ask all of my chosen research topics.
Gloria Mckee Lopez is the assistant Dean of Undergraduate Education here at UTEP. She is also a professor here as well. Again, i couldnβt find a bio or a picture of her. I honestly couldnβt find any information on her except for her email and her name. I chose her because I feel like she could have some insight on my research topic. She has a PhD, so she obviously has some experience in the nursing field. Iβm hoping that she could pull from her own experiences to respond to the questions that Iβve come up with.
Kathleen OβConnor is an Associate Professor at the School of Nursing here at UTEP. She has several years of experience researching mental health of minorities, and she herself seems culturally diverse speaking several languages and having tons of experience outside the US. She seems to have tons of insight on the topic of minorities in the nursing field. Iβm hoping she could enlighten me on how she has seen diversity affect the patient to nurse interaction.
