At Williams Baptist, I taught and redesigned nearly every literature course in the curriculum. The now-retired chair had served for over fifty-two years at the university and was a beloved local institution. However, much of the actual functioning of the department, particularly the composition courses, was quietly devolved on me. I on-boarded new faculty and adjuncts, designed teaching materials, decided program direction, and collected outcomes-assessment data. My other duties included schedule-making and proposal-writing as well as instructing new advisors. I was also twice elected by my peers to the six-person faculty senate, the lead representative body, and sat on the crucial outcomes assessment committee.

At Palm Beach Atlantic, I taught professional and academic writing as well as some literature courses. I also sat on the Honors faculty (a distinct privilege) and was a leader in scholarly research. I began my career as an adjunct and was eventually moved into a half-time role (so full faculty status, but only a half-load for a half salary and no benefits). My colleagues were settled, and no full-time option was apparent. As I was young and without a family, I took an opportunity abroad for adventure.
