I have been an instructor at Nassau Community College since 2015, beginning as an adjunct instructor and currently as a full-time faculty member in the Criminal Justice Department. I teach introductory courses, as well as the more specialized courses of Understanding Criminal Behavior, Criminal Law, and Criminal Procedure.
Before coming to NCC, I was an Assistant District Attorney in the Kings County District Attorney’s Office (in Brooklyn, NY) assigned to the Sex Crimes and Special Victims Bureau. I thoroughly enjoy bringing my past experiences as a prosecutor into the classroom to educate the students.
I am most proud of our students when I receive an email from a former NCC student telling me that he/she/they have begun to realize their dreams. Many students will contact me to tell me they have done well on a Law Enforcement entrance exam, been called by a local Law Enforcement agency to join, or have successfully graduated from their 4-year school after starting their collegiate education at NCC. It’s then that I am most grateful to have played a small part in their success!
I am truly honored to educate the future Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice professionals of Nassau County and beyond.

I served in the United States Navy in Recruit Training Command in Great Lakes, II and at Camp Pendleton with the 5th Marines. I was also deployed to Okinawa, Japan twice. Stateside, I knew that Nassau Community College has a reputation for being very military friendly, and when I got here, it was true.
