1. Please describe your interest in Eta Sigma Gamma and becoming a member on the National Board of Directors.
My experience with ESG has been nothing but rewarding since first inducted in 2008. I have met the best of colleagues who still, to this day, we continue to work collaboratively or keep in connection professionally. As a student member, we engaged in research projects and conducted several activities to enhance our health education confidence. It is now my privilege and honor to serve as a faculty advisor for the University of Tampa’s chapter, Epsilon Sigma, since 2017. Before this, I served 2 years at the University of South Florida, Delta Kappa chapter. My goal is to guide our student members to achieve at least one of ESGs core areas (education/teaching, service/advocacy, research), expand their social and professional capital, and try something new. Every year, I am taken back to witness the students’ creativity and determination in accomplishing their set goals despite setbacks that arise (e.g., pandemic, limited funding, small workforce). Since at UT, our chapter has been recognized for excellence in ESG core areas.
As a member of the National Board of Directors, specifically as the Professional Member‐at‐Large (PMAL), my interest is to work collaboratively with ESG to use our collective experiences to assist and ensure chapters are appropriately recognized for their accomplishments. Recognizing students, chapters, and chapter sponsors is a gratifying task, but equally a responsibility to ensure all are evaluated fairly and equitably within our national guidelines.
2. Describe your experience working with ESG/Gammans at a local (chapter) and/or at the national level.
As previously noted, I have served as a faculty advisor in two local chapters. I served 2 years with the Delta Kappa chapter at the University of South Florida. Our students were mainly master and doctoral level students. We lead several advocacy and awareness activities throughout the campus (e.g., annual flu drive, sexual health campaign). In 2016, I joined the University of Tampa and co‐lead the charge to apply for a new chapter at the University of Tampa. We proudly installed UT’s Epsilon Sigma in 2017, and since our new installation, we have accomplished two large research projects, numerous advocacy/awareness events, and skill‐building workshops. The National Eta Sigma Gamma organization recognized our student’s work, and I intend to bring my local experience to the national organization.
3. How have you exhibited leadership in your work or extracurricular activities?
Currently, I serve as the Faculty Diversity Committee chair at my university. As a committee, we have shaken things up at the university to bring issues of Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) to the forefront. Our coordinated effort over the summer has led to a university‐wide task force to

review our policies, benchmarks, curricular and co‐curricular efforts, and much more. Much of my research is related to cancer survivorship issues and Latino health. I have served as co‐director of the Prevention Research Center's research core and coordinated several nationally funded grants and some of my initiated research. In 2014‐2016, I took a leadership role to lead the curriculum offered in our Health Education concentration. Presently, I am collaborating with our UT’s public health faculty to get our undergraduate program accredited.
4. Do you have experience serving on any boards? If so, please explain. My board experience is reflected in my commitment and volunteer service to a non‐profit organization for Latino cancer survivors and their families called LUNA (Latinos Unidos por un Nuevo Amanecer). I have served multiple roles in this organization, from President to Treasurer. As a LUNA board member (the largest Latino cancer support organization in the Tampa Bay area), I spearhead key decisions. Specific decisions are related to the development and identifications of programs and services that are linguistically and culturally appropriate for Latino cancer survivors, such as Camp Alegria (nation's first Spanish language oncology camp for Latinas).

As the PMAL, you will commit at least 10 hours per month to participate on conference calls with other ESG Board members (average 10/year; 1‐2 hours per meeting), review applications for chapter awards, and plan conference sessions for the annual ESG national meeting, attend the annual board meetings (one professional conference and one board meeting associated with the national SOPHE conference), and other duties as needed from the National Office. Explain if you will be able to do this. Yes, I am committed to the roles and responsibilities of PMAL position. Describe the skills that you would bring to ESG National Board of Directors.
