Associate Professor of Communications/Assistant Professor of Cinema & Media Arts, Program Coordinator, Communication

Assistant Professor of Cinema & Media Arts

My research focuses on digital communication in and around contemporary social movements. I am fascinated by the intersections between media, technology, and politics. I am especially interested in how people use new and emerging documentary practices in attempts to transform power relations and fight for equality.

In my teaching, I strive to keep an inquisitive spirit at the forefront of everything I do. I want to create opportunities for my students to experience wonder, to find lines of inquiry that feel genuinely meaningful to them, and to discover ways of actively engaging with society rather than passively accepting the world as they have inherited it. My students pose questions that matter, and they are empowered not only to find answers to those questions but to develop creative interventions based on what they are learning. If my students take nothing else away from my courses, I want them to develop the desire, confidence, and skills necessary to take charge of their learning and see themselves as lifelong learners.

How do I teach?
As a scientist and educator, I heavily rely on inquiry-based education, active learning, and interdisciplinary teaching. I want my students to improve their understanding of foundational and basic biological concepts and further apply these concepts into larger issues, develop problem-solving skills and strategies, improve skills associated with collaborative teamwork, and lessen any math, science, or authority anxiety.

What are my research interests?
My research interests focus on how human activities have an impact on aquatic ecosystems. Specifically, I am interested in the effects of pesticides, pharmaceuticals and personal care products on freshwater organisms. These pollutants are ubiquitous and detected at concentrations that likely have an effect on organismal fitness. So, I want to address and explore how these contaminants alter organisms’ behavior (using movement as an indicator), growth, reproduction, and egestion/ingestion rates and how these changes affect food webs and nutrient cycles.

What am I doing right now?
In class:
I teach Life Science (BIO101), Life Science Lab (BIO102), Introduction to Environmental Science (BIO224), Agroecology (BIO226), Global Water Issues (BIO330), Environmental Science (BIO324), Environmental Science Lab (BIO325), Environmental Studies (BIO326), and Environmental Health (BIO424).

In research:

Effects of pharmaceuticals and salinity on snail (Physa acuta) and fish (Poecilia reticulata) growth, movement, and reproduction
Meta-analysis on pharmaceuticals abundance in wastewater effluent
Case studies addressing global water issues

Students have pursued research addressing the effects of acetaminophen and salinity on freshwater ecosystems from an ecotoxicological approach. We have received funding through Society for Freshwater Science, North Carolina Independent Colleges and Universities, and North Carolina Wesleyan University internal grants. This funding has supported research and students’ conferences participation. I am always looking forward to meeting enthusiastic students to be part of these research efforts.

B.A., Psychology, Miami University

I specialize in American Politics, with specific interests in electoral politics, public opinion, and political psychology. Recently, I have become particularly interested in the social and electoral implications of misinformation, particularly conspiracy theories.

Teaching Interests
I teach courses on American politics and social science research methods. I offer courses on American political institutions, including U.S. Congress, The American Presidency, and Judicial Politics. These courses challenge students to critically examine the role and efficacy of these institutions, with particular emphasis on the relationship between the institutions and the electorate. I also teach American Political Thought, a course examining the “big ideas” central to the development of the American approach to governance, policymaking, and political ideologies.

I also offer two courses more directly related to my interests and expertise in electoral politics. Political Psychology is an interdisciplinary course examining how people “think” about politics, particularly the origins and development of political attitudes, the role of personality and dispositional factors, as well as information processing. I have also recently developed a new course, Conspiracy Theories and Misinformation, which also satisfies a Wesleyan Core requirement.

Finally, I also teach Social Research Methods. This course introduces students to the empirical approach to asking and answering social science research questions, with an emphasis on quantitative methods. I favor an applied approach, with students developing their own research questions, collecting data, and analyzing the data using statistical software.

Research Interests
I have broad research interests in political psychology and electoral politics. A common thread throughout much of my research is a focus on political identity, particularly partisan and ideological identities. Recent projects have examined how partisan identity/loyalty structures vote choice in primary elections, cross-cutting issues across partisan and ideological identity, and the social nature/function of ideological identity.

Recently, I have become interested in how misinformation shapes political attitudes, and I am working on a project, in collaboration with Dr. Preuss (Associate Professor of Psychology at NCWU) on how belief in conspiracy theories can fulfill a social need.

Dr. Preuss and I have also recently founded the Social Science Research Lab at NCWU. This is a dedicated space to collect and analyze data and we hope to involve students in the research conducted through the lab in the coming years.

I have earned my Ph.D. in Political Science in 2008 from the Pennsylvania State University. My teaching and research focus on comparative political institutions, democracy and democratization, East European politics, Russian Politics, and East Asian Politics.

Teaching Interests
I currently teach Comparative Politics, East Asian Politics, Introduction to International Relations, Introduction to Political Science, and Political Parties and Public Opinion.

I believe my role as a teacher is to introduce students to new areas, work with them on topics that they are curious about, and keep students motivated and enthusiastic throughout the course. In doing so, I hope that students in my classes not only complete the class in a successful manner but also effectively evaluate theoretical arguments in Political Science and develop their own perspectives accordingly.

Research Interests
My research has focused mostly, but not exclusively, on comparative political institutions and democratization, with regional expertise in East Asia and Eastern Europe. More specifically, I examine sources and consequences of new types of presidential instability (interrupted presidencies and impeachment attempts), the post-tenure fate of political leaders, and institutional determinants of democratic performance in presidential and semi-presidential systems. My research appeared in Cross-Cultural Research, Democratization, Government and Opposition, Journal of Politics, and Political Research Quarterly.

Teaching Interests
I teach courses in world literature and composition, with a particular interest in exploring the power dynamics present in these fields. My literature courses offer students insight into how literary texts and other cultural representations shape how we perceive lived experience. My composition classes help students reflect on their writing habits and consider which ones serve them well and which ones might be worth re-evaluating. I encourage my students to take ownership of their own learning process as they encounter new and challenging materials. As an instructor, I am committed to continuing to develop an actively anti-racist pedagogy that emphasizes inclusivity, mutual respect, and collaborative learning. This includes highlighting common ground while also acknowledging problematic ideas, and clarifying the definitions of terms to further contextualize harmful statements. My ultimate aim is to support my students in developing critical thinking skills that can empower them to resist structures of inequity.

I’m also a member of the Wesleyan Singers and enjoy creating music with NCWU students.

Research
My research interests center on Caribbean fiction and poetry, in particular the use of epigraphs in twentieth-century anglophone Caribbean novels. I present my work regularly at the Caribbean Studies Association’s annual conference and have published articles in Caribbean Quarterly, Storyworlds: A Journal of Narrative Studies, and the volume Caribbean Literature in Transition, 1920-1970 (2021, Cambridge University Press).

My current book project, Radical Canons, explores the cultural functions of literary authority and the construction of literary canons.

Teaching Philosophy
My philosophy is to provide students with a positive learning environment that will not only provide them with valuable knowledge, but also encourage lifelong learners. I implement a variety of strategies in the classroom to reach the needs of different students. As an educator, I continually search for different methods to instruct college students. Three key principles I focus on in my classroom include:

Student learning styles
Preparing students with 21st-century skills
Student evaluation

Learning Styles:
The classroom, whether online or physical location, will provide students with several methods for gaining necessary skills and knowledge. It is essential to provide visual, auditory, and hands on methods for learning. A few methods I utilize for instruction include: projects, PowerPoint, open discussion, and research. I enjoy using open dialogue with students because it not only brings the classroom material to life, but also helps to nurture a passion and enthusiasm for the subject matter.

21st Century Skills:
The classroom allows the opportunity to use a plethora of technology. Engaging students in computers and programs enhances their abilities needed in the 21st century. Online books, assessments, lectures and exams are only a few strategies I have used in my courses.

Evaluation:
I feel it is important to use many approaches to assess the student’s progression on course material. Projects, papers, examinations, presentations, rubrics, open discussions are just a few evaluation methods I implement. When possible, I enjoy utilizing practical experiences.

Lastly, it is important for me to be available to students and listen to their questions and concerns. Most adult learners are juggling jobs and families, among other obstacles. Each student’s circumstances are different and it is important to be accommodating to aid in the student’s success. Students must be held accountable to timelines and quality of work, but there may extenuating circumstances that may require me to be accommodating. My classroom environment will provide knowledge, skills and theories through many learning styles. It will be conducive for all students to learn and enhance their preparation for a career and to become lifelong learners.

Associate Professor of English

General Education Program Coordinator
Assistant Director of the Teaching and Learning Center
Editor, Omnium: The Undergraduate Research Journal at NCWU

Education
Ph.D., The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

Teaching Interests
As a faculty member at North Carolina Wesleyan, I often have the chance to teach across traditional disciplinary boundaries, as I do in my course on 19th- through 21st-century British literature which focuses on the development of British national identity from the time of the abolition of slavery to the present. Moreover, I appreciate that NCWU maintains small class sizes so that students can forge long-lasting professional relationships with their instructors and peers. I not only enjoy mentoring English majors until they graduate—and sometimes beyond—but also working with them on projects and events for our chapter of the International English Honor Society, Sigma Tau Delta, which invites our majors to make the fullest use of their studies. Was honored to win North Carolina Wesleyan's Exemplary Teacher of the Year Award in 2025.

I’m serving as editor of NCWU’s undergraduate research journal, Omnium, and have been a member of the Wesleyan Singers since 2019.

Research
My research interests include Victorian literature and culture, particularly 19th-century writings on gender, maternity, and violence. My scholarly work has appeared in Victorian Studies, Victorian Literature and Culture, Victorian Review, Victoriographies, Oxford Bibliographies, Pedagogy, The Journal of Popular Culture, and in other venues.
