Message from the InterIm Director

I am delighted to be working with the ATU Center of Faculty LIFE because I truly believe that we can continue to learn and grow as educators. My hope is that I can reach my colleagues and support them in accomplishing their goals, whether that is providing an activity that reminds them of their ‘why’ for pursuing a career in higher education or assisting them in finding beneficial resources. If we can take care of ourselves, grow and ignite a spark of curiosity in ourselves, we are able to propagate that to others.

I encourage you to explore our website to learn more about our professional development opportunities. I also encourage you to contact me if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you!

-Dr. Alexis Johnson
