"I obtained both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in English from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I teach English and writing at a local community college, and I have worked in higher education for more than eight years, at both UNCG and Elon University, where I worked in administration and course instruction alongside students, faculty, and staff. My students range in age from Early College to traditional community college to professionals, and come from a variety of backgrounds and career fields.
In addition to my professional academic background, I have more than 12 years’ experience in writing, editing, and journalism. I was the copy editor and a writer at Our State magazine for several years, analyzing, researching, and verifying more than 200 published pages a month, in addition to all web-related copy, in-house advertorial copy, and all miscellaneous materials associated with the magazine and company.
The interest I have in my field of study is reflected in the energy I exert in my work, and in my ability to effectively and willingly communicate with a variety of people, discriminating against no one. I am dedicated, passionate, and thorough in everything that I do, and I attribute this in part to those who pushed me, who instilled in me the benefits of hard work, determination, and success. I have been employed not just as a college English instructor, but as a magazine editor, newspaper reporter, professional writer, copy editor, copywriter, administrative assistant, and in publicity and marketing. I have been a tutor, mentor, supervisor, enrollment manager, scholarship coordinator, and a part of a board that oversees university media organizations. These were not all teaching or tutoring jobs, but they were jobs that continued to instruct me, to guide me toward my current career. They instilled in me patience, determination, adaptability, dedication, resourcefulness, organization, understanding, empathy, accountability, compassion, generosity, fearlessness, trust, and resilience." less...
