She returned to IUK's Writing Center as a tutor and mentor in 2020.

She brings a plethora of knowledge and expertise in Writing Center scholarship and best practices in peer tutoring. Caitlyn hopes to increase the visibility of the Writing Center on campus and maintain the stellar reputation it has earned under the leadership of its previous directors.
