Dr. Nicole Martin and Dr. Rachael Deel are valued members of the University of Kentucky. They work hard to educate our community on topics surrounding unconscious bias and equity. I recently had the opportunity to learn from them.
What were you doing prior to coming to the University of Kentucky and what do you do now?
Rachael Deel
I earned my Master of Communication degree at the University of North Texas in 2007. I then took a brief hiatus from being a student and accepted an adjunct teaching position at Eastern Kentucky University because I thought Kentucky was a beautiful place, and I have family in the horse business. I quickly realized that I belong in higher education and just couldn’t imagine working anywhere else.
