I am an Assistant Professor of Education for La Salle University and a researcher and participant for the Writers Matter Program. Prior to this, I was a graduate student at University of Virginia where I served on a Writing Across the Curriculum research team for three years and was an instructor of literacy courses at James Madison University. I also have seven years of full-time teaching experience at the elementary level. My scholarship interests are in writing across the curriculum and creative pedagogy.

Active in the literacy field, I am a member of many national and local literacy agency including National Council of Teachers of English, International Reading Association, Association of Teacher Educators and Association of Literacy Educators and Researchers.
