Kristin Hocker is an assistant professor of clinical nursing, a faculty diversity officer, and the School of Nursing’s deputy Title IX coordinator, undertaking responsibility for the prompt and fair handling of sex-based harassment or misconduct complaints.
Widely recognized as an influential voice in matters of diversity and inclusion, leadership, and professional development, Hocker has a progressive record of experience in teaching, consulting, and facilitating training and professional development within higher education, academic medicine and health care.
Before joining the School of Nursing full time in 2019, she spent the previous 13 years as an organizational development specialist in the University of Rochester Department of Human Resources, where she coordinated the UR Safe Space program and facilitated workshops on implicit bias and micro aggressions, cultural humility, and other topics that address the concept of inclusion as practice. In addition, she taught part-time in the HCM program (where she continues to teach). She has also served as an adjunct faculty member at the Warner School of Education, The College at Brockport, and MCC. She is also a part of the faculty team teaching leadership development to fellows in the UR LEND (Leadership Education for Neurodevelopmental and related Disabilities) program.
