elements of stories but also the traditions particular stories come from—how place and race and history often converge to inspire and inform a creative work, pushing it beyond the sum of its parts. I view a classroom setting and one-on-one mentorship as a kind of community of empathy and exploration where we’ll ask questions like: What are the building blocks of this story? Who is the imagined audience? What might I want to emulate? Why am I resistant to a certain narrative? Why have I embraced this

process, treating each draft as a space for experimentation, for excess, and for bold choices they might otherwise never make.In the creative writing classroom, I aim to rethink and decenter traditional approaches to the workshop, which structurally privilege a small set of identities and formal approaches. Integrating critical interventions by Arielle Greenberg and Felicia Rose Chavez, I use an alternative workshop pedagogy that engages each writer in shaping the structure of the workshop. This

writing program is for students to see themselves as artists participating in an expansive and diverse literary landscape that expects them to write compelling work, to challenge and surprise their readers, and to encourage curiosity, critical thinking and emotional growth. To that end, I uphold a high standard for myself, and I invite those who choose to work with me to do so as well.”

: teaching. Teaching Philosophy Although I believe that part of a professor’s job is to instruct students and give them basic knowledge, a much larger part of the job is encouraging students to take an active role in their own learning.

To achieve this goal, I try to teach students to apply the material in their own lives and become good critical consumers of
