I am an Assistant Professor of English and member of the graduate faculty at Monmouth University specializing in Rhetoric and Composition, with secondary specialties in Professional and Technical Writing, Digital Rhetoric, and Writing Program Administration. I have a combined ten years of experience teaching graduate and undergraduate students online and face-to-face, and I research the labor of information mediation and online writing instruction. I am currently a trivia team free agent.

My Research interests are:

• Online Writing Instruction - How do we best teach and learn in online classes, as online ecological microcosms. Where student and teacher labor is best spent and best supported

• Data, Information, Knowledge, and Wisdom (DIKW) - How we define data, information, knowledge, and wisdom in empirical and rhetorical terms, and how we value the labor of moving between them, especially now that more of each exists than ever before

• Circulation and Virality - How these metaphors govern our knowledge economy, and how volatile shifts affect our lives and actions

I have also, in the past, worked on Metagaming as knowledge-making and still find it a fascinating source of inspiration. I have also researched Augmented Reality (AR) as melding the digital and material, rather than as an added digital layer.
