I helped establish the Minnesota Writing Project and have served as Co-Director since 1990. For over thirty years, I taught language arts at Burnsville High School, where I was actively involved with the district's curriculum work and staff development programs. I co-direct the composition component of College of the Schools, an opportunity for high school students to earn college credit from the University of Minnesota. In addition, I am associated with the Best Practice Network in Writing, a group of writing teachers from across the state who encourage good instructional practice in writing.
