I enjoy working with students on their writing to ensure that they publish documents that represent the best of them professionally and personally. I have an EdD from Walden University, an MA in English from St. Thomas University, and a BA in English from the University of Minnesota. I am currently enrolled in the masters in criminal justice program at Walden. I was a senior dissertation editor in the Walden Writing Center for over 10 years, and I taught proposal workshop and graduate writing faculty member in Academic Skills. I am a core faculty member in the School of Human Services, and I am the Academic Integrity Officer for the School of Human Services.
