I am from, and still live in, Akron (yes, I drive that far every day). I attended Kent State University for undergraduate and majored in English with minors in Political Science and Creative Writing. I earned my Master’s degree in English literature at the University of Akron, which started my work in writing centers. When I am not working at the Writing Center, I enjoy hiking with my dogs (yes, I have many pictures), reading, knitting, watching old horror movies with my husband, and generally being a geek. While I attended large universities, I enjoy the close-knit community that Wooster fosters and the welcoming atmosphere that we try to create in the Writing Center as part of that.
