I am currently an Assistant Professor of English at Auburn University Montgomery, where I teach undergraduate and graduate composition courses. Research interests include material and cultural rhetorics as they are experienced in pop culture and pedagogical settings.  My book Unplugging Popular Culture: Reconsidering Materiality, Analog Technology, and the Digital Native is being published by Routledge’s Media, Culture, and Communications series and will be out in 2019.
