I collaborated with one of Kresge's archive experts to review a journal of recipes kept by an American mother who lived during the time of Fanny Fern’s publication of "Ruth Hall". The criticism surrounding the intentionally published work of Fanny Fern gives life to the private record by characterizing how it was used.

Education
Henry Ford II High School
Forensics is competitive acting and speech making. 

After graduating high school I immediately started coaching and judging for Henry Ford's team. I had participated in both interpretive acting and public address, or speech making, categories. Many returning coaches come from an interpretive background, so I work mostly with public address students. 

The largest obstacle in high school performance is working with students to instill confidence. I balance points of improvement with positive feedback so students are comfortable and have realistic & concrete expectations of their performance. This face to face practice informs how I articulate written critiques when judging competitions.

Carried out a fundraising campaign to raise money on Oakland University's main campus. My personal role was to coordinate a raffle, design the advertising posters, and talking to the public about our cause. My group was able to raise exactly $75.00, which is how much a tree costs the organization.
Two weeks after the fundraiser my group went to Patton Street in Detroit to plant trees in a suburb. The four group members were able to plant two trees in two hours.
