Norlan Hernández, Ph.D.

Associate Provost for Engagement and Inclusive Teaching & Learning

I feel that God has a unique plan to use FPU to serve the San Joaquin Valley. I was drawn to the very diverse student population FPU has. The student stories were impactful and inspiring. I wanted to find a place to put my gifts to use and make a meaningful impact in people’s lives. The more I learned about FPU and its surrounding community, the more I felt that FPU was the place I was looking for.
