Steve B Conant

I have been an integral part of the Gonzaga University community since 2009, bringing over a decade of experience as a user-centric instructor and learning designer. My expertise lies in crafting and delivering course curriculum and content that enhances the overall student experience, using a unique blend of creativity and data-driven insights. I've taught a diverse range of courses, including Anatomy & Physiology, Assessment of Health & Function, Management Information Systems and Social Media & Technology for Business.

My professional journey at Gonzaga has been marked by a commitment to innovation and excellence. As a Senior Laboratory & Technical Specialist since 2016, I've designed online content for human physiology courses, developed cloud-based solutions for departmental needs, and championed the integration of VR teaching and research within various courses. Over the past three years, I have pioneered ultrasound education into our A&P lab. In addition to my instructional responsibilities, I've served on committees, chaired search committees, and continuously worked to enhance lab capabilities through successful funding applications.

My journey in education extends beyond Gonzaga University. As an Adjunct Anatomy Instructor at WWAMI Spokane, School of Medicine, and Adjunct Faculty at the School of Business, Gonzaga University. Furthermore, my role as an Information Design Consultant has allowed me to apply my expertise in designing websites, social media content, advertising campaigns, and drone videography for a range of clients.

Prior to my career at Gonzaga University, I owned & operated my own business in Bozeman, Montana for almost a decade. As a certified Exercise Physiologist and Strength & Conditioning Coach my mission was to reduce the prevalence of chronic disease and sports-related injuries with my clients. During this time, I developed an effective program to reduce risk of knee injuries in skiers. My program was adopted by Bridger Freestyle Team and MSU Alpine Ski Team.

My educational background includes a Master of Science in Health & Human Development – Exercise Physiology & Nutrition from Montana State University - Bozeman and a Bachelor of Science in Exercise Science from the same institution. In addition to my formal education, I've engaged in continuous professional development through courses in Adobe CC, UX/UI, and Project Management from LinkedIn Learning.

With a diverse background and an unwavering commitment to innovation and excellence, I eagerly anticipate continuing my journey as an educator and learning designer at Gonzaga University.
