"Communication is an important discipline as it is an integral part of many things we do, both personally and professionally, in today's global landscape. This exciting field is continually evolving with cutting-edge technologies and novel information flows; I immensely enjoy teaching the subject to as well as learning from UToledo students. Witnessing my classes explore variegated communication skills and unleash their creativity across media platforms - whether it is writing news stories, designing websites, or creating social media content - is very rewarding and a lot of fun."
