Since elementary school, I have loved reading and writing, both fiction and nonfiction. I’ve been teaching English composition and literature since 1997. In 2006, I started teaching at the post-secondary level. Each year, I challenge myself to try a new project or initiative to grow as both a professional and a person.
At the University of New England, I teach composition and am also the DigiSpace Coordinator, a role that allows me to assist students and faculty with digital projects. I’ve built my English Composition curriculum around the digital change that affects all of us, whether we have realized it or not. Some topics that I find especially interesting are big data and the effects of the digital experience on people as readers, writers, and thinkers.
I have always enjoyed spending time around and in the ocean, and I like to travel. This summer, my family and I hiked several mountains in Maine, and we spent some time in the Boston area visiting friends and family.
