Positions:
- Instructional Associate Professor, English, College of Arts and Sciences
overview
My research and general areas of curiosity are centered around how we navigate diverse learning systems to create knowledge and how to measure the success of translating learning schemas across diverse learning environments. I am looking at Digital Literacy as the focus of my research and how to improve student success in Higher Education through better relevance, instruction, and integration with adjacent disciplinary curriculum. I want people to critically think and be better informed so we can increase civil engagement and empathetic discussions with diverse people in the world.
