Manage episode 377535410 series 3447218
Liz Walker, PhD, MPH is Director of the Office of Evidence-Based Learning and Director of Graduate Studies for the MPH program in the Department of Behavioral, Social and Health Education Sciences (BSHES) at the Rollins School of Public Health. In this episode Liz talks about her "winding journey" from a history and biology double major in college, through a master's in teaching, to ultimately an MPH and PhD program in BSHES. Throughout her journey, her passion for education has been at the forefront and plays a central role in her educational leadership roles. Liz's words of wisdom include "give yourself grace. You can't learn everything all at once. And it'll take some time. And to make those relationships and lean on the other people who have either done it before or going through it with you, because that is crucial." and "Having your support system of like-minded people who can nerd out about teaching, and share ideas, and just be there has been really important.... I guess find your people."
