August 2026 Honoree
Atiya Porter, MSN, RN
This professor is the epitome of what a nurse educator should be and an even better mentor. This professor has taught me some of the toughest lessons in nursing while always believing in me and encouraging me to keep going. One of the biggest lessons I have learned is that confidence is key. I was constantly reminded to believe in myself, trust my knowledge, and never be afraid to step outside of my comfort zone. This professor makes every student feel seen, valued, and capable, even when we struggle to believe in ourselves.
Thank you, Atiya, for your exceptional compassion, advocacy, and dedication to your patients. You truly make a difference.
