I was nominated for the Outstanding Adjunct Faculty Award by the Communication Department at St. Edward’s University. I am so lucky to teach at this incredible school, with such vibrant students and involved faculty. This nomination means so much to me.

I was just offered the Jesse H. Jones Fellowship from the College of Communication for the 2013-2014 academic year. I feel so honored and excited to receive this award!

My manuscript with Larry Browning, “Retelling Stories in Organizations: Understanding the Functions of Narrative Repetition,” was just accepted for publication in the Academy of Management Review.  

This past weekend I travelled to Louisville, Kentucky to present on a panel organized by Michael Kramer (University of Oklahoma). The panel, titled “Socialization and Assimilation: Where
it’s Been and Where it’s Going” featured research that seeks to extend the field of socialization.
