I am a Ph.D. candidate in the Rhetoric & Scientific & Technical Communication and Human Factors & Ergonomics graduate programs. My research intersects rhetoric, communication technologies, and social science, with a particular focus on pervasive-persuasive computing and composing. My current projects include exploring the visual and digital rhetorics of wearable technology, integrating agile methodology in writing instruction, and devising a maker approach to technical communication pedagogy and practice.
