I found my way into a satisfying career as a scholar and professor, but it wasn&#8217;t easy. As a first-year writing instructor and mentor to graduate writing fellows and new faculty, I can provide insights into how to navigate the hidden curriculum\/protocols of the academic setting and offer support when education collides with family and work obligations.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><span>First-Generation College and Graduate\/Professional<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Gender Identity and Pronouns: she\/her\/hers<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Race, Ethnicity, and\/or Nationality: White and Latina<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Hometown: Fresno, California (born in London, England)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span>Business\/Industry of Interest:\u00a0<\/span>Art and Humanities<\/li>\n<li><span>Personal Facts\/ Hobbies\/ Interests: I am active scholar of 19th-century literature and visual culture in Great Britain and its former colonies.
