“I want to be that person who connects with students, that expresses belief in them,” shares Shawn Matheson, MBA, an award recipient, and faculty in the College of Health Professions. “So many people tend to perform to the ability that they think others think they are capable of. And that’s the memorable type of person, the positive type of coach that I want to be…I appreciate this recognition in honor of those interactions with students.”

The award recipients were hosted for a special weekend that included attending and being recognized at an Arizona Diamondbacks game at Chase Field ballpark in Phoenix, as well as a day of fun activities that closed with a celebration dinner and awards ceremony.

Yuvonne Richmond, DBA, an award recipient and faculty in the College of Business and Information Technology, attended this year’s festivities. “Teaching at the University means I get to make a great impact in the lives of my students by coaching, mentoring, and just being there for them to make sure they are successful,” she stated. “I am deeply honored to receive this 2023 Faculty of the Year Award because I know what great faculty we have here at the University of Phoenix.”
