As Writing Center Coordinator, I recruit, train, and supervise some of Stockton's
brightest and most creative students. I also teach in the First-year Studies (FRST),
Writing and EOF programs. My involvement in the FRST program gives me an opportunity
to help students gain confidence as college thinkers and writers. In my work with
the tutors, I stress the importance of understanding the learning differences among
all students and building on students’ strengths. In coordination with the Community
of Scholars, I regularly present workshops on writing, researching, and studying.
A1982 Stockton graduate with a B.A. in Political Science, I earned my master's degree
in English at Georgetown University and returned to Stockton to run the Writing Center
in 1986. I consider myself blessed to have a job I love. I am also happily married
with one son and two sweet mixed-breed dogs.
