Professor Shelly Sheppard Shelly has been teaching at SAC for several years, developing courses for both traditional and dual-credit courses. She has been tireless in her work to develop rigorous and engaging courses that prepare students for higher-level thinking. She has often lead the charge on participation with development and training, not only taking part in the offered trainings but then turning around and sharing important items with the rest of the department. I have worked alongside her in several of these trainings and am always motivated by her energy. Additionally, Shelly has been an anchor in the quarantine storm that hit us last year. She serves as a department coordinator for the Biology and Anthropology side of the Natural Sciences Department. I (and my colleagues) sincerely appreciate the phenomenal work that she and Dave Wood have both done to support the rest of the department in completing required training and documentation, as well keeping as much paperwork off our plates as possible. This has helped us to keep our focus on our students and ensure we are able to give the best quality instruction that we can.

Bio Mrs. Sheppard earned her BS in Nutrition from the University of New Mexico and her MS in Nutrition from the University of the Incarnate Word ultimately earning her Registered Dietitian/Nutritionist credentials in 2007. Her experiences in the field of dietetics includes clinical nutrition, community nutrition, and K-12 school district food service management. |
