PROFESSIONAL SERVICE
For the most up to date information, see my Curriculum Vitae.
Also, see my Statement of Administrative Philosophy.
Service, to both my university and to my discipline, is one of the most rewarding parts of working in higher education for me. Most notably, I am the current Book Review co-editor for one of the most well-respected journals in my discipline, Composition Forum. Additionally, during the the 2020-2021 academic year, I served as Clemson University’s Assistant Director of First Year Composition. In this role, I assisted first-time graduate writing instructors with their teaching responsibilities. I helped to redesign the Composition program’s curriculum, created video content for the program’s YouTube channel, and compiled resources and lesson plans for program-wide distribution. In my current role at The George Washington University, I co-chair our planning committee for the University Writing and Research Conference, serve on our Assistant Professors Reappointment Committee, and serve on our Curriculum & Assessment Committee. Additionally, in my PhD program’s chapter of the Rhetoric Society of America, I’ve served in various roles such as President, Professional Development Coordinator, Archivist, and Graduate Student Government Senator. In fact, during my year as our RSA chapter’s President, our organization won RSA’s “Outstanding Graduate Student Chapter” award (2020-2021).
