I graduated from the University of Wyoming with a communications degree in
advertising and public relations. My father was in the military and later
worked for the airlines, so I spent a good deal of my adolescence moving
around. I graduated from high school in Wyoming and went on to college there
as well, my parents still live there so I now consider it to be where I
am "from". Literature is one of my great passions; I have always loved to
read and enjoy everything from contemporary works to classics. Some of my
favorite writers are Mark Twain, Charles Dickens, Edgar Allan Poe and more
recently, J.K. Rowling. I feel that teaching is such a gift because not only
are you teaching something new everyday, but you are also learning something
new everyday.
To provide a clear understanding and appreciation for American literature.
There are a lot of great writers from our country and we will take a journey
with just a few of them this semester; hopefully you will continue to
experience these and other great works of literature on your own. A larger and
more profound vocabulary is also a mission this semester - having a high
vocabulary opens doors that you didn't even know existed - trust me.
