I taught fifth grade for seven years; I also earned a Masters in Drama, Language Arts, Literacy, and Reading.

Research & Scholarly Interests

My research focuses around multimodal and multimedia literacies, specifically in, but not limited to an academic setting. I am particularly interested in literacies and literacy as a social practices and what those practices afford readers and their learning environments. My work also considers how to support teachers striving towards new ways of operating with literacy, taking into account the arts, drama, and visual culture. Much of my research has been focused on the medium of graphic novels.
