About Me

Welcome to my site! I’m Dr. Joumana McGowan, an experienced educator and college administrator in California for over 20 years. I’ve held leadership positions such as Vice President of Academic Affairs at Citrus College and Associate Vice President of Instructional Services at Mt. San Antonio College (Mt. SAC), where I provided executive leadership for educational policy, academic programs, and student learning support operations.

I’ve also served in various academic roles including Dean of Business, Dean of Instruction, Academic Senate President, and Tenured Business Management Professor. My passion in higher education is to inspire and motivate students, faculty, and the college community towards more equitable inclusion and greater success.

With my multicultural background, I strive to empower others to use their voices for social change and provide insight into the diverse community I serve. As you explore my site, you'll find my dissertation on women in college administration and leadership, favorite quotes, and more. Let’s work together to make education a platform for success and positive change.
