Teaching

Since 2011, I’ve been teaching literature, creative writing, media studies, and composition to high school, college, and non-degree-seeking students both online and in person. At New York University, Syracuse University, and the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, I’ve been instructor of record for many undergraduate and graduate courses including:

  • Introduction to Visual Culture
  • Theoretical Synthesis (graduate-level academic writing practicum)
  • Queer and Trans Identity
  • Introduction to Creative Writing
  • College Writing and Research
  • Introduction to College Writing
  • Living Writers (survey of contemporary literature)
  • Representations of Sex and Sexuality 
  • Visual Rhetorical Analysis in Gender and Sexuality

I also served as the primary Fiction Instructor for the Syracuse University Summer College Program in Creative Writing, a two-week intensive course for high school students. In 2019, I co-founded the Milwaukee Queer Writing Project, an organization which partnered with Woodland Pattern Book Center to create writing workshops for young people in Milwaukee public schools. 

I have also taught creative writing courses and offered private coaching through Writers.com. Courses I’ve offered include:
