dgoss@soka.eduSupport for all writing at any stage in any subject is the Writing Center’s raison d’etre.

Her work is grounded in scholarship on reading and writing connections, transfer of writing skills across contexts, supporting multilingual writers, inclusion and accessibility in the writing center, and Ikeda/Soka studies in writing. Debbie oversees programming, initiatives, and research in the Writing Center. She has a PhD in Composition and Applied Linguistics from Indiana University of Pennsylvania and has an MA in TESOL from the SUA Graduate School. Debbie joined the SUA Writing Center in December 2017 and has taught in the SUA Writing Program since 2018.
