About:
Welcome to my profile on The Link. I'm an Associate Professor of English and have been at Harding since 2003. I teach Composition, World Literature, British Literature, and Shakespeare, and I'm a co-sponsor for Sigma Tau Delta (the English Honor Society) and Souvenirs (the poetry club). I studied Victorian literature at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. My undergraduate degree is from Oglethorpe University in Atlanta in my home state. I live in Searcy and attend the College Church of Christ. My father is a retired printer, my mother is a homemaker, and I have one sister and one brother. My hobbies include reading, classic films, Bison and Lady Bison basketball, antiques, and studying the history of stage magic. I'm currently researching a biography of a famous lady magician named Dell O'Dell. But I'm seldom happier than when I'm writing columns for "The Bison." It is one of my favorite things to do, and one of the many reasons why teaching at Harding is such a pleasure.
