Bio
Hello!
I was hired in 2005 to teach writing courses in the English Department, then began teaching Perspectives on Gender in 2007, and then Gender and Sexuality Studies (formerly Women's Studies) in 2008.
I am an artist, a zinester, and community organizer committed to collective, grassroots justice. I was born and raised in the Inland Empire and I care very deeply about improving and evolving our community.
