Hi, I'm Ryan.

I'm an instructional designer at Idaho State University, a Ph.D. student in English and the Teaching of English, and an academic journal editor.

Whether as a community college librarian, a rhetoric and composition instructor, or the other positions I've held, I help people understand complex ideas and systems, embrace curiosity, and explore alternatives.

A better world is possible, and I aim to help make it happen. If you're still curious, here's more about me.

Freire and Critical Librarianship

Why do I #critlib? Because another librarianship is possible.
