Collegiate Affiliation

I'm continually delighted to be a part of the Center for Writing, where I enjoy collaborating with writers on finding ways to bust open new possibilities for writing in—or against—the university, or whatever other spaces/systems matter to them. My dissertation, More Things Than Dreamt of in Our Philosophy: Tutoring, Administration, and Other Peculiarities of Writing Center Work, was an ethnographic study of one group of writing center tutors' beliefs and practices along with their implications for theory and tutor training. My current research interests include supervision in writing centers, and, as always, the complex push-and-pull of privilege, power, discourse, identity, and resistance in the writing center.
