I am an Associate Professor of Rhetoric and Writing and Director of Core Writing at the University of Nevada, Reno. In addition to working with linguistically and culturally diverse students at the postsecondary level in the U.S. and Colombia, I have taught EFL in workplaces and K-12 schools in the Czech Republic and Chile, learning Czech and Spanish along the way. I have taught first-year writing, technical/professional writing, and upper division and graduate courses at multiple institutions. Learn more about my classes on the Teaching page.

My research is primarily focused on investigating issues surrounding the increasing linguistic and cultural diversity of education worldwide and working to transform educational institutions and writing classrooms into more inclusive spaces for all students. Much of this work is theoretically grounded but pedagogically oriented, focusing on linguistically diverse peer review, the development of new teaching practices, and literacy experiences across the curriculum and at different institutions.
