CWC Staff

Directors:

Tiffany Rousculp is the director of the Community Writing Center. She also teaches writing and linguistics for the English Department at Salt Lake Community College where she landed 13 years ago after finishing graduate school in Los Angeles. It was in L.A. that she first worked with the community in writing: 25 junior high students in the barrios of South Central L.A writing a book about their school. She founded the CWC and has taken it on the road to other colleges/universities that are starting their own community writing centers based on this model. She writes and publishes in two vastly different worlds: academia and thinly-disguised memoir posing as fiction.

Andrea Malouf is the CWC Advisory Committee coordinator. She also teaches writing for the English department at Salt Lake Community College. During the last 11 years, she’s worked as a magazine journalist, an editor-in-chief of five publications, an information designer, a literary arts volunteer with many local organizations, and a mom. She writes fiction and nonfiction when time permits (usually between midnight and 2 a.m.).

Writing Assistants:

The Writing Assistants at the CWC come from diverse backgrounds and have each receive extensive training in writing coaching, workshop facilitation, and collaboration.

Shannon Bell currently attends Salt Lake Community College with intentions of transferring to the University of Utah. Although she has many different interests, Shannon feels declaring a major to be a commitment she cannot keep. She spends her time as part time student, writing assistant and full time dog mom.

Chanel Earl spent eight years planning on becoming a professional saxophone player and then gave it all up to study John Milton and Kurt Vonnegut at the University of Utah. She graduated in December and now spends an inordinate amount of time sleeping and reading. Chanel is not a good speler, but is grateful for her husband, who graciously doubles as a live in proofreader.

Suzy Gehring is currently a student at the Salt Lake Community College with intentions of transferring to the University of Utah to pursue an MFA in creative writing and to minor in journalism. She has been a freelance journalist for the past four years, is working on two novels, rock climbs in her ‘free time’ and attends lots of poetry readings at multiple cafes around the city. She’s also a mom and enjoys long bike rides (only because she has no car), and takes lots of naps. Beware; she’s completely obsessed with books.

David Hansen is a Marxist revolutionist , writer and student at the U of U seeking a Spanish B.A. & radical change in our society. He enjoys writing non-fiction, memoirs, political essays, and poetry. He is currently working out the kinks of his writing while assisting fellow community writers at the SLCC Community Writing Center.

Robbi Poulson is working on her life plan of becoming an eerie recluse living on the outskirts of some unfortunate small town. Given that even hermits need money, she is working diligently toward a BS in International Studies with the aspiration of attending law school. Additionally, Robbi enjoys both her part-time jobs, and is one of those annoying people who cannot wait to get to work. She charitably dedicates most of her free time to babysitting her husband and friends (four-legged, biped and imaginary).

Jeremy Ethan Remy is the Writing Assistant Specialist, as well as DiverseCity Writing Series & Volunteer Coordinator for the SLCC Community Writing Center. He also works as a freelance writer, editor and graphic design artist. He and his wife live in a home at an undisclosed location, which they rebuilt with strength of will and excessive plaster. There he inscribes tales of a horrific nature, and she paints images of strange dystopias, all while their furry children live a life of leisure.

Christina Smith has always known that she wanted to live the English Major’s Bohemian lifestyle of writing all day and thinking deep thoughts while staring into the depths of her hot chocolate, she has come to realize that, romantic as that notion may be, creditors still demand payment …on time. While working her dream job at the CWC, Christina is devising a devious plan to escape the “real world” by retuning to school to earn her MA or PhD in English as soon as possible.
