Bryan
Master of Arts in Written Communication: The Teaching of Writing; Bachelor of Arts in English Language with a minor in Journalism
Bryan has been a writing consultant at EMU since 2014 and began serving as the University Writing Center Satellite Coordinator for the College of Health & Human Services in 2017. He is also a part-time lecturer who has taught writing intensive courses in nursing, health administration, engineering, and interior design. Bryan enjoys working at the writing center because it gives him the opportunity to work one-on-one with students and to witness firsthand as they learn about themselves and grow as writers.
In his free time, Bryan likes listening to a broad range of music genres (blues, hip-hop, rock, R&B, pop, folk, classical, etc.) and going to concerts; spending time cuddling with his cats, Olivia and Sinatra, while watching Netflix shows like "Stranger Things" and "Peaky Blinders"; going to museums; drawing and painting; and getting his geek on by regularly playing Dungeons & Dragons with friends and family.

Marie
Bachelor and Master of Arts in Creative Writing
Marie has worked for the Writing Center in a variety of positions beginning in 2016. She began as a receptionist, and in this initial role, she witnessed firsthand the important work the UWC does for the EMU community. This inspired her to continue her UWC journey as a peer tutor, graduate assistant, and now, as a part-time lecturer. As a creative writer, she is familiar with the power of writing in its various forms and styles, and during her time at the Writing Center, she has had the privilege of consulting with students who represent a wide array of academic disciplines. She looks forward to continuing this exploration as she works with the College of Health and Human Services and, in turn, is also able to learn from students and their research. When not reading, writing, and grading, Marie can be found walking around an art museum or hanging out with her cat, Nova.
