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.

  • The Internet as a Democratizing Medium

    Today, I’ll be presenting at ECU’s celebration of International Women’s Day. The panel is on social media, and I’m focusing how we can make better use of the Internet when we avoid assuming that it is a necessarily democratizing, unembodied medium. It’s an informal talk aimed at undergraduates and followed…

  • The Genderbread Person

    Some friends just told me about this, and I think it’s a wonderful way to get people to think just a bit harder about what gender means. I’m borrowing the image below from this page to provide a preview, and I myself am going to need to buy this author’s…

  • Girl Rising

    Girl Rising is an important new activist movement to empower girls. Read more at their website, or view the trailer for the upcoming film below.

  • No Longer Human

    A re-post, because I know I’ll want to read this piece a few more times. “[R]ecognizing the humanity of others has never before come at a cost to an entire class of people.” We need our legislators to stay out of such situations, or at least to think harder about…
