Biographical Statement

Although I am now pursuing graduate work through the Center for Writing Studies, I've spent most of my life in Washington state, both in my hometown of Port Angeles and at UW in Seattle. As an undergrad, I changed majors frequently but ended up with degrees in English and Oceanography; I also worked as a tutor and then lead tutor at an on-campus writing center for three years.
