Hello. My name is Kevin Zeiler and I’m currently working as an assistant professor in the Health Care Management program at Metro State. I am committed to helping students within the department succeed both academically and professionally. I’m very pleased with the courses that are offered by the department, and it is my hope that I’m able to use these courses to provide a learning environment that promotes awareness, insight and a practical approach to health care today. I was fortunate enough to gain insight into the health care industry by working in numerous capacities in both the clinical and managerial sides of the business. The years I spent as a paramedic have proven to be an invaluable experience that has allowed me to better understand health care from the provider’s point of view as well as provide a valuable service to the community. I’m hopeful that I will be able to pass that knowledge and experience on to the students that I serve.
