Hi

 Howdy, 


My name is Spencer TL Wilkins and I’m a first-year student in the Nonfiction Writing Program. I worked for three years in my high school’s writing center and am ecstatic to join the UI Writing Center. Outside of workshop tables, I can be found birding, chopping records, or agonizing over orange and blue sports teams (go Knicks). A summer highlight would be learning archery. Currently, I’m working on a piece about the Soundcloud rap era in Trenton, New Jersey.

Howdy!

Hiya,  My name’s Mason Hamberlin (they/them), and I’m a second year in the Nonfiction Writing MFA. I’m a from all over, but central North Carolina is the closest place to home. Some small joys of mine: floating on rivers, trail running, thrifting clothes, cursed earrings, Eastern BBQ, basement shows, and queer theory. This semester, I’ll be teaching two section of GEL, so I have about fifty-ish undergrads to rally 😅 In the past, I’ve taught GEL over Zoom, edited for Chautauqua Literary Journal, and worked with students ages 8-18 to play and experiment with creative writing, but this’ll be my first time (tentatively) teaching in-person at a university level.

I haven’t been able to jump into a body of water in a while, so it was fun to reconnect with old friends and sail a boat around on mountain lake.  I’m a lil all over the place with my writing, but lately I’ve been collecting stories

hi!

  Hey everyone, my name is Tommy Mira y Lopez and I'm a first year student in the MFA in Literary Translation. I'm from New York City originally, but was most recently living in Cleveland (Let's Go Mets...sigh). I'm teaching Rhetoric 1030 and, though I haven't worked in a writing center, I've spent time tutoring writing and editing. I'm working on translating a book of stories from the Brazilian writer Jose J Veiga; I'm also a nonfiction writer, with a couple projects in various stages. Highlight of the summer? Any day it was under 80 degrees and being able to go out for a drink on a patio. And starting classes!
