BIO

In August of 2000 I transferred from San Antonio College to the University of Texas, Austin. After graduation in 2004 I moved to South Korea where I lived and taught English for two years. I was awarded a Masters in Rhetoric and Composition in 2012 and a PhD in Education, Culture & Society with a focus in Writing & Rhetoric Studies in 2018. Today, I teach writing classes and study Writing Education, Culture, and Knowledge Transfer.
