Biography
At San Diego State
University, I focused
my studies in ethnic American literature and wrote a graduate thesis titled
“Search for Place and Authentic Locations of Identity” based on the works
on the African-American writer, Gloria Naylor. I also studied the teaching of English as a
Second Language and received an ESL certificate from SDSU in addition to my
Masters in English Literature. I also completed a Reading Certificate
during Spring 2001 at San Francisco State
University.
I have taught and continue to teach a
range of writing classes from developmental writing and reading,
college-level composition, advanced writing courses in critical thinking,
and introduction to literature. Before becoming a full time instructor at Skyline College,
I taught part-time at several community colleges in and around the Bay Area
as well as at San Diego State
University. I have
also taught English as a Foreign Language (EFL) in Madrid, Spain at the university level.
Currently in my writing classes at Skyline, I tend to design lessons around
issues relating to race, class, and gender.
Outside of school my main
interests are reading, running, and traveling.
