Research Statement
My research interests center on writing theories and pedagogies that develop students’ communicative practices across social, institutional, and professional contexts. In order to support the increasingly diverse students in post-secondary writing classrooms, I investigate innovative approaches to advancing students’ metalinguistic awareness across disciplines, genres, and discourse communities.
Current Projects
