Statement

Because I believe that every student needs and deserves the opportunity to be successful in their college careers, the core of my pedagogical approach is a focus on inclusive teaching practices. In my course design, teaching methods and materials, student mentoring, and ongoing professional development, I strive to learn and integrate into my classes more effective and accessible education practices that support student success. My committment to equity and inclusion extends to my service leadership activities as co-chair of the English Department Diversity Committee and as co-coordinator of the CSWS Inclusive Pedagogies Research Interest Group (IPRIG), which works to develop best practices in writing pedagogy that support student diversity through forms of equitable writing assessments among other initiatives.
