Dr. Holland is both an affiliate and supporter of nursing education nationwide.

Dr. Holland's doctoral degree is in medical pharmacology. He is very much dedicated to the success of students and their preparation for work-life readiness. He continues to motivate students in the life-long pursuit of learning.
