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.

  • ATTW/CCCC

    Tomorrow I’m headed to Atlanta for a week of conferencing … look me up if you’re there, too! I’ll be presenting in Session C.5 New Perspectives in Risk Communication at ATTW, and D.09 Widening the Community: Re-thinking and Re-framing Medical Rhetoric/Writing at CCCC.

  • Risk and Deepwater

    I’m currently working on a presentation about the Deepwater Horizon disaster and risk communication. By “working on” I mean “thinking about continuing to work on because I’m stuck.” To aid the process of invention, I thought I’d do a little exercise in material gathering. So, the stuff listed below is…
