Q: What courses do you teach?
COMM 2060
Q: What are your current career goals?
I work a full-time job and adjunct on the side.
Q: Did you previously study at UNT and tell us about your time here and what your academic focus was.
I earned my Master's in Communication Studies at UNT in 2012. I studied rhetoric and performance.
Q: How long have you been an adjunct and how long will you be here?
Three semesters - and as long as they need me - I love teaching 2060!
Q: What do you do outside of teaching?
I work a full-time job at UNT in the Center for Learning Enhancement, Assessment, and Redesign.
Q: Do you have a fun memory from your time at UNT ?
In graduate school, a bunch of us would karaoke. I sang "Just a Girl" by No Doubt with Suzanne Enck!
Q: Are you currently working on any research or projects?
My full-time job involves multiple projects addressing learning and teaching in higher education.
Q: Is there anything you would like UNT Comm students to understand or know about adjuncts?
I have the luxury of teaching COMM 2060 in addition to a stable full-time job, but a lot of adjuncts teach several classes full time, which is really hard. It's important to get to know your instructor - sometimes, like a lot of college students, they are just trying to make ends meet, too.
Q: What is your favorite book?
How could I possibly pick just one?!
