I joined Dickinson College as the Assistant Director of the Norman M. Eberly Multilingual Writing Center and Writing Program in the fall of 2024. This was a return home for me in many ways, since I graduated with a BA in Classics from Dickinson in 2015, before pursuing an MPhil and then PhD in Classics from the University of Oxford and Brown University respectively. At Brown I managed the Writing Fellows Program, the first of its sort in the country (founded in 1982) and the model on which our Writing Associates are based. I worked in the Writing Center at Dickinson while a student, and have been delighted to return in this new role and discover how the Writing Center has evolved. The core principle here remains one of tutoring through empathy, an attitude that I try to embody in all of my professional roles. When I’m not agonizing over my own writing, you’ll typically find me working with my horse, Mijo, who made the trip with me all the way from Rhode Island to Carlisle!
