Kim Keeline’s Summary

I have been an instructor for fourteen years, with experience in many different classes and school settings, and have trained new instructors in teaching writing courses and written two instructor's manuals for composition coursebooks. I have experience in writing and editing articles, both through several newsletter positions and from my web design experience. I was also hired to edit another USC student's dissertation in Social Work. I am now seeking a position to teach at the college level or looking for a writing/editing/web design job.
