Welcome
. . . to the my website - feel free to look around. I am an associate professor of writing at Loyola College in Maryland where I teach a variety of courses in our undergraduate writing curriculum and direct the first-year composition program.
If you are a student, you'll most likely want to start on the Teaching page. If you teach Effective Writing, you'll find resources and program information on the Composition Program page. Other pages feature information about my scholarly work and play. The About page includes a brief bio and my cv.
