Welcome!

I am a PhD candidate in English with a focus in composition-rhetoric at the Graduate Center of the City University of New York (CUNY). I am working on my dissertation, ““(Re)Historicizing the Teaching Practicum: The Impact of Teacher Education onComposition Studies,” a project that examines the understudied history of the teaching practicum for writing instructors. I am interested in the historiography around the practicum as a window to name and rethink myths about literacy that still pervade writing studies, as well as imagine how the practice of teaching writing can detach from its disciplinary roots.

I currently teach the First Year Writing Sequence at Baruch College and am a Writing Across the Curriculum Fellow at Bronx Community College where I am developing writing intensive training curricula for teachers-in-training across disciplines. I also co-chair the Graduate Center’s Composition Rhetoric Community, a group that hosts readings and workshop by composition-rhetoric scholars for those working in comp-rhet across CUNY. My work is published in The Journal of Interactive Technology and Pedagogy, the Center for the Humanities, and the Covid-19 Impact Project (forthcoming). I have previously taught writing and literature courses at Brooklyn College and am teaching a course titled “Life Writing for Artists” at the School of Visual Arts in summer 2021.
