I am a professor, copywriter, editor, internationally published poet, and award-winning translator based Columbus, Ohio. I have a PhD in Communication, Rhetoric, & Digital Media from NC State University, where my dissertation was on digital narrative and electronic literature; and I also hold an MFA in creative writing from Boston University and an MA in English & comparative literature from UNC–Chapel Hill.
In addition to my own writing, I have extensive experience training writers. I am currently a senior lecturer at Ohio State University with recent course topics including applied digital media, writing about video games, and monsters. I've also taught professional writing, comparative literature, composition, creative writing, English, and literary translation at the university level, and I was a research and instruction lead at NC State's Innovation Studio from 2020–2022, where I designed and taught workshops that covered content ranging from Afrofuturism to video game narrative to social entrepreneurship. I'm particularly interested in writing as a technology, and ongoing developments in AI and machine learning are fascinating to me. My current pet project is a 3D-printed touch interface capable of performing mediated readings of novels using Natural Language Processing and Python/Programming code. Please feel free to contact me, especially if you want to talk about basketball, cheeseburgers, movies, and/or Frankenstein. |
