I have a passion for helping others understand and improve their work. From a background in language education, I shifted to program evaluation where my work has focused primarily on K-12 and higher education. I now have over 10 years of experience in formative and summative assessment using quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods approaches.My doctoral work in higher education has further developed my content area expertise as well as my expertise in quantitative methods, survey research, and working with largescale datasets. My interests broadly include how students engage in learning, how teachers engage their students in the classroom, and the cultural contexts that impact classroom learning. My current research focuses on the ways that institutional and disciplinary cultures and faculty identities impact faculty teaching in higher education, with the goal of helping educational and faculty developers better understand the faculty they work with and the contexts in which their faculty work.I am excited to continue and share my research with the higher education community and to use my skills to help people better understand their work and the program they run.
