SNAPPI Advisory Board

At the helm of SNAPPI’s mission is a distinguished Advisory Board composed of thought leaders in nursing education, healthcare delivery, workforce development, and policy. These advisors bring deep expertise, strategic insight, and a shared commitment to solving the clinical faculty shortage in bold and sustainable ways.


Together, they guide the program’s growth, ensure academic and operational integrity, and help us stay aligned with the evolving needs of both practice and education. Their leadership helps SNAPPI remain innovative, impactful, and deeply rooted in the realities of today’s healthcare landscape.
