About 

I am a Professor of English at California State University Long Beach, where I teach graduate and undergraduate courses ranging from Theories and Practices of Composition to Critical Theory to Digital Rhetoric and Video/Participatory Cultures;I also co-direct CSULB's First-Year Composition Program and mentor Lecturers and Graduate Teaching Associates who teach in the program.

 

My areas of interest include: histories and theories of rhetoric, visual rhetoric, digital rhetoric, video and participatory cultures, composition theories and pedagogies, and post-secondary teacher education. My research explores the intersections of rhetoric, writing, electracy, and video/participatory cultures, and offers both theories and practices that operate as alternatives to traditional, literate-only conceptions of writing; I am interested in the implications arising from the convergence of identity building, community building, teaching, and learning taking place in and through participatory and networked cultures. I have published articles in JAC, Composition Forum, Kairos, and Itineration and my book, published in 2013 by SIUP, is entitled Participatory Composition: Video Culture, Writing, and Electracy.
