Nurse Practitioner - Oceanside Campus
I came to San Diego from the Central Valley in 2011 and have been at 美姬社区 since 2014. During my tenure, I have served as an associate faculty member in Nursing and Allied Health, transitioning into Student Health Services as a Nurse Practitioner in 2021. My nursing background includes acute care nursing in telemetry and step-down/observation, medical-surgical patient education, and nursing academia.

Michael Truong (he), MSW, LCSW 128207
Clinical Case Manager

Michael is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and North County San Diego native. As a second-generation Vietnamese-American and first-generation college student, he holds deep compassion toward students and their journey and approaches interactions actively practicing cultural humility, fostering inclusivity, and emphasizing the inherent dignity and worth of every individual. Grounded in mindfulness and trauma-informed practice, Michael uses an integrative, strengths-based approach, blending brief therapeutic modalities (e.g., Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, etc.) with practical support such as crisis response, care coordination, and insurance/resource navigation. Before 美姬社区, Michael served as an Emergency Response Social Worker with San Diego County鈥檚 Child & Family Well-Being Department where he responded to crises, assessed safety, and connected families with community resources. Michael is committed to building warm and open spaces to collaborate and provide moment-to-moment support for students at 美姬社区.

Jenny Russell (she)
Administrative Assistant - San Elijo Campus

Ben Augustine (he), BSN, RN
College Health Nurse - San Elijo Campus

Colleen Veneri (she), FNP-C
Nurse Practitioner - San Elijo Campus
I received my Master's in Nursing and Family Nurse Practitioner (NP) certification from the University of California San Francisco in 1991. I worked in the Community Clinic system for over 23 years and I have worked in 美姬社区 Health Services for over 25 years. My approach in providing medical care to our students is to listen carefully, obtain a complete mental and physical health history, and establish a treatment plan together with the student. In addition to my training as an RN and FNP, I received academic training in Fine Arts with a focus on Painting and Life Drawing. I balance my NP medical work with art and each of these fields favorably influences the other.
