Research/Teaching/Practice Interests:

- Diverse young adult literature, resources, and services

I am particularly interested in the depictions and uses of digital and critical literacies in recreational, popular media, such as online games, young adult literature, graphic novels, music, and film. I hope to explore ways to leverage these media to provide more immersive, connected, and engaging resources, services, and digital literacy instruction for digital youth and adults.
