Welcome to my website! This website is meant to show viewers my “scholarship journey.“ There are four separate blogs which work as pages. Each page focuses on a different part of the journey.
​
To navigate the main menu, go to the top where it says "Introduction to Website." Move the cursor to the "The Rest of the Website" tab. Move to the empty square that emerges. You'll see the other sections of my website: "Scholarship Narrative," "Contact Me," and "Curriculum Vitae" show up below. Clicking on "Scholarship Narrative" will give the option to see all four pages at once. You can also click on the hyperlinked pages below to read them in any order you want.
On page 1, I introduce how my visit to the Creationist Museum in Petersburg, Kentucky stimulated my interest in creationist rhetoric and the fallacies creationists use when they discuss evolution.
On page 2, I discuss how my interest in fallacies informs how I teach composition – at least First-year Composition.
On page 3, I show how teaching fallacies led me to look more into classical rhetoric – particularly Aristotle. Salient here is how I use digital and online resources to do classical rhetoric research.
On page 4, I end with how I got into digital and multimodal rhetoric. I particularly focus on how I now study science writing and scientific visuals.

Lastly, I must acknowledge Professor Ryan Shepherd. If it weren't for him encouraging me to follow my interest in science writing, and making us construct this blog for his New Media Composition class, I don't think I would have seen the narrative evolution of my work.
