Biography
I am an educator/scholar of organizational rhetoric and strategic communication at EIU. My research on corporate historical responsibility has focused on how corporations address past complicity with historical injustice and engage in or undermine discourses of reconciliation. After completing my PhD at Purdue University in 2011, I have researched and taught in Germany and the United States.
