"I enjoy helping students explore how social media and other computer-mediated communication tools impact communication in various contexts, such as marketing and campaigns, interpersonal communication, organizational communication, as well as health communication. Students also learn to use analytic tools, improve their writing and strategic planning skills, and obtain in-depth knowledge of communication research and practice. I believe such important skills, knowledge, and experience will prepare our students for a successful career and education in the future."
