My research areas are defined by the intersection of feminisms and technical communication. Feminist Technical Communication explores just that intersection and many of the sites of confluence—healthcare, risk, environmental rhetorics—for these two disciplines. This book builds upon my 2013 dissertation “Theorizing an Apparent Feminism in Technical Communication,” which won the Conference on College Composition and Communication Outstanding Dissertation Award in Technical Communication. My work has appeared in Computers and Composition, Journal of Business and Technical Communication, Technical Communication Quarterly, Programmatic Perspectives, and Peitho: Journal of the Coalition of Feminist Scholars in the History of Rhetoric & Composition. (My older publications can be found under the surname Frost.) The same theoretical commitments that inform my research also guide my teaching; I hope my students describe me as fair, collaborative, curious, and open-minded.

  • How to Use Twitter (and other related tools)

    Last week, I attended a session at the CTLT on using Twitter. I came away with all kinds of ideas about how to use it in the classroom–and I’m psyched to keep thinking about those ideas!–but  right now I’m still working on how to use it outside the classroom. When…

  • No grading papers in public! Say what?

    The idea of a grade-in had never occurred to me before. What a brilliant concept! What better way to make public all the invisible labor that goes into teaching? So sad that in the very same story where I learned about this idea, I also find out that police are…

  • Silence is an action

    Despite having the highest GPA in her graduating class, a black student (who also happens to be a mother) was forced to share valedictorian status … because having her as the lone valedictorian might “cause a big mess.” Amazingly, no one with enough power to do anything came forward to…
