About

I'm a passionate, innovative, and collaborative educator committed to equitable and culturally responsive teaching practices at the community college and university level. Whether I'm teaching basic skills, college level, or transfer level composition, I work hard to harness the diverse cultural capital of my students to create an active, student-centered classroom where students can engage in critical thinking and master the social acts of reading and writing at the college level.
