Felina is passionate about educating others on women's health, reproductive justice and helping people tap into their inner power. Her work centers on serving and advocating for marginalized and underserved communities, always with respect for holistic, traditional and culturally rooted care. Felina, in conjunction with fellow UNM College of Nursing faculty, staff and leadership, recently received a $4 million federal grant, मिडवाइफरी के परिणामों और लचीलेपन को आगे बढ़ाना (एएमओआर), to help educate and support more diverse nurse-midwives in New Mexico.
"I've been a faculty member since 2011 here at UNM, and I've always seen myself as a bridge between the community and academia, as well as a voice working within systems to help represent people who don't necessarily see themselves entering academia,” says Felina.

"मुझे परिवारों के विकास में महिलाओं का नेतृत्व करना पसंद है। नर्सिंग कॉलेज का कार्यक्रम प्रत्येक व्यक्तिगत छात्र पर अपना ध्यान केंद्रित करता है और संकाय वास्तव में उनके स्वतंत्र हितों का पोषण करता है। यह कुछ ऐसा है जो उन्हें अलग करता है और छात्रों को सफल सीएनएम (प्रमाणित नर्स-दाइयों) बनने के लिए तैयार करता है।, “नीना कहती है।
Katie completed her midwifery training at UNM and is a leader in midwifery research in New Mexico, focused on advancing lactation science and improving support for families. Her संघ द्वारा वित्तपोषित अध्ययन explores human milk, mammary gland function and culturally congruent lactation care in New Mexico's diverse communities.
"The flexibility to operate in a lab and in our participants' homes is very helpful for the lactating person's comfort and convenience. Being able to meet them in their own environment builds trust, ensures more accurate data collection and enables more effective lactation support,” says Katie.
