I design courses that invite students to question how embodied experience shapes individual and collective identities. As an undergraduate at Rice University, my professors in the Study of Women, Gender, and Sexuality transformed my academic trajectory and set a model for pedagogical rigor and care that I continue to try and emulate. I credit them and my subsequent interdisciplinary doctoral training with emphasizing a feminist, anti-racist pedagogical practice and making me a versatile and responsive teacher. I select readings, foster discussions and assign writing assignments with the aim of helping my students develop their own awareness of their positionality (and privilege) vis-à-vis gender, race, class, and disability.

I enjoy mentoring and working with students to achieve their aims and I take an interest in the whole student because I believe that strengthens my ability to teach them; it also brings the joy of learning of their successes and growth outside of my classroom.

I have been teaching Composition and Rhetoric courses since 2015. I have also taught upper-level composition courses in Business and Technical Writing, introductory courses in Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies, and courses in American Studies.

Courses taught in my areas of research include: Honors first-year and Business Writing sections themed around equity, disability, and gender and literature courses on sports and ethics and 20th century modernism.
