About

I teach professional writing to undergraduate and graduate college students. I am most passionate about helping people communicate effectively through writing and speaking, supporting student writers in their efforts at benefiting their communities through their writing, researching best practices in college composition, and writing about critical pedagogy and literacy. Outside of teaching, I copy edit.
