Working with students and scholars as authors of academic texts, I teach Academic writing for multilingual scholars of varied disciplines. Analyzing example texts and learning our target writing styles, my students and I develop the necessary skills and strategies for high-quality academic writing.

I hold a PhD in English from Rutgers University, and I have been teaching English for more than fifteen years – first in Taiwan, and more recently in the United States. I have been teaching at Washington University in St. Louis since 2018.

With my own background and research focusing on rhetorical analysis, I enjoy helping students to see the power in the words they select to explain their research. I look forward to seeing you in my Academic Writing courses.
