Biography

My experience teaching in Higher Education began at Colorado State University Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL). I lived and worked in Shanghai and Chengdu, China for three years. The highlight was being a TESOL instructor at Sichuan University, working in both the Undergraduate and Graduate programs. I returned to The United States to begin my Master's studies and taught non-native language learners at the School District of Philadelphia's ESOL shelter school, Furness High School.

Course development and curriculum design became strong interests during my years of in-person instruction that informed my choice of a Master's program. This creative affinity led me to studying Learning Pedagogy, Instructional Design and Educational Technology at Pennsylvania State University. Now, I am grateful to be back home in South Dakota.

South Dakota State University acknowledges the land it occupies across South Dakota is the ancestral, traditional and contemporary lands of the Oceti Sakowin (oh-CHEH-tee shaw-KOH-we) meaning Seven Council Fires, which is the proper name for the people referred to as Sioux.
