  I'm a professor of English with American Public University System, and have been teaching for 15 years, 8 of which have been fully online. My current goal is to transition from teaching to instructional design; I am burned out on teaching, but always enjoy designing courses and helping others to design courses.

EXPERIENCE

• American Public University System

  • Assistant Professor
  • October 2009 to Present

EDUCATION

• University of Rochester, Rochester, NY

  • Master of Arts
  • August 2001 to May 2005

  The MA is the highest degree I've completed; at this point, it's highly unlikely that I'll ever complete my dissertation and earn a PhD! My specialty is actually Middle English literature and medievalism, but I also had training in composition pedagogy during my PhD work.

• College of William & Mary, Williamsburg, VA

  • bachelor of arts
  • August 1996 to May 2000

  I earned a double major in English and Music Performance (harp and voice) at W&M.
