For the past five years, I have been in the English Department at
University of Washington–Seattle where I taught a range of courses
in composition, writing for the web,
composition pedagogy, and modern and postmodern literature. At the end of the
2005-2006 academic year, I completed a two-year appointment as an Assistant
Director of the Expository Writing Program with responsibilities
including curriculum development for 100-level composition courses and the
training and ongoing mentoring of new instructors in English. I am now
excited to be teaching in the Interdisciplinary Arts & Sciences Program at
University of Washington–Bothell as a fellow of the Project for
Interdisciplinary Pedagogy.
In addition to teaching (and a few other things :), I am a doctoral candidate in English–Language & Rhetoric currently finishing a dissertation entitled Challenging Communication: Linguistic Diversity and the Politics of Ambiguity.
