A proud Native Hawaiian and first-generation college graduate, Stan’s passion for increasing access and equity in higher education has shaped a distinguished career spanning over 15 years in admissions, student affairs, and diversity leadership.
Currently serving as Associate Dean for Admissions, Student Life and Diversity at the Arthur A. Dugoni School of Dentistry in San Francisco, Stan directs a dynamic team overseeing recruitment, enrollment, student engagement, and DEI initiatives. Under his leadership, the school consistently enrolls diverse, talented cohorts and spearheads national outreach programs such as the Pre-Dental Bootcamp, Dugoni Discovery Day, and Impressions Day.
A lifelong learner, Stan is pursuing his Doctor of Education in Transformative Action in Education. He also holds a Master’s in Higher Education from the University of San Francisco and a bachelor’s in journalism and political science from the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa.

When he’s not at work, you’ll find Stan enjoying the outdoors, staying active with sports, or exploring neighborhoods and eats in San Francico. His life’s work continues to be guided by a deep commitment to educational access, student success, and uplifting communities that have historically been left out of the conversation.
