I am an English major with a minor in Education! I love reading and want to become a teacher to I can help other people learn to love reading as well!

I'm an English major, concentrating in language and literature, with a minor in dramatic writing. I love reading books, drinking coffee, and watching Gilmore Girls. In addition to my time with UWC, I am on the news staff at The Daily Toreador. I live in Lubbock with my fiancé and my cat, Pluto.

Hello everyone! I recently finished my undergrad and earned a BA in psychology with a sociology minor. I am now continuing my education at Texas Tech through their STEM MBA program. Working as a writing consultant for the last year and a half has been so fulfilling and fun. On top of that, I was also a Learning Assistant for ENGL 1301 courses for two semesters. I look forward to meeting y'all & Wreck 'em!

Kimberly has been a writing consultant for over 4 years. She earned her PhD at Texas Tech University in Fine Arts: Artistic Practice and Critical Studies. She also has an MA from Florida State University in art history and a BA, also from Texas Tech University, in art history. Residing in San Antonio, Kimberly not only works with students in the TTU Asynchronous Writing Center but also teaches art history and art appreciation at Northwest Vista College. As a writing consultant, Kimberly aims to provide the best possible feedback and understands, first hand, that writing can be a struggle. Her personal motto is “there is no such thing as a perfect writer, only one who gets better!”

I'm a first-year apparel design major and first-year writing consultant. My authorial background is more creative than academic, with my preferred form being stage plays. I enjoy worldbuilding, as well as writing narratives and rules for tabletop games which I design. I also compose music in my free time, although I do not yet play an instrument and lyrics elude me. I look forward to helping you sharpen your writing skills!

I received my bachelor's and master's degree in English from Texas Tech University and have over 20 years' experience teaching writing to students. I enjoy working with students in all genres of writing, including personal statements, resumes, and dissertations. I strive to bring compassion, empathy, and a motivational spirit to our sessions. When I have leisure time, I enjoy traveling with my husband, relaxing with my pets, and fostering animals until they find their forever homes.

Howdy Y'all! I was born in Texas, Amarillo to be exact, and moved to Lubbock during high school. I then moved to Santa Fe, NM for my undergrad, majoring in Liberal Arts. After that, I moved to East Asia (China and Taiwan) for 14 years to teach English and study Chinese. While living in Taiwan, I got an MA in English Literature and Languages. After moving back to Lubbock, I got an MA in Applied Linguistics at Tech. Now my family lives in Austin so my daughter can go to a Chinese immersion school. As you may have surmised, I'm interested in language, communication, culture, and literature and spend a lot of my free time reading when I'm not walking my dog or playing with my daughter. I've worked with the Writing Centers of Texas Tech for five years now and love helping students become better writers! 

Kathy has worked as an asynchronous writing consultant for more than 20 years. Knowing how difficult it can be for people to express themselves in writing, her favorite part of her day is feeling like she's made a connection with the writers she consults for. When she's not working, Kathy enjoys long walks and growing her cooking skills.
