About
I am an instructional communication scholar with a broad teaching range including argumentation, interpersonal and intercultural communication, and qualitative research methods. Given this, I am dedicated to the scholarship of teaching and study professor and graduate teaching assistant (GTA) communication contributing to their classroom credibility. The pedagogical contributions of and challenges faced by professors and GTAs of color are of particular interest to me—including international graduate teaching assistants with English as a Second Language who teach oral performance courses. In addition, I employ a critical approach to investigating the implicit rules and issues of power associated with conducting academic research and the publication process. I love growing roses, photography, and serving as a stewardess at my church where my duties include serving communion. When I grow up, I want to be a wedding photographer.
