Dr. Jennifer Phegley, chair of the English Department, shares "I am delighted to have Antonio as our newest colleague in the English department! He brings a strong commitment to supporting student writing in the classroom and beyond. He has made excellent connections across the campus and in the community as he works to build our technical writing courses and to offer opportunities for students to learn about the crucial role writing plays in local businesses."
