About Me

I hold a BA in Philosophy from the University of San Diego and an MA in English Literature, along with a Technical Writing Certificate, from California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo. I have over 15 years of experience in IT as a Technical and UX Writer, including several years leading Technical Writing departments. I've taught at Cal Poly, Creighton University, McMurry University, and Fortis Academy, covering courses in Composition, Rhetoric, and literature from the Medieval period through Post-Modernism. I enjoy helping students strengthen their writing, sharpen their critical thinking, and develop a lasting appreciation for literature. I use the Classical Essay as a foundation for most of the writing that I teach.
