Biography

Kelley Frierson graduated from Texas A& M University – Corpus Christi with a B.A. in English. She completed her M.A. in literature with an emphasis in composition and rhetoric and a M.A. in cross-cultural studies with an emphasis in anthropology from UHCL. Her research interests lie in the historical and emergent traditions found in literature, culture and thought. 

Changing careers in mid-life led Ms. Frierson to find an exciting and creative outlet for expressing different ways to communicate in a classroom. Her vast past experience — military, corporate and academic — bring a unique combination together in the classroom. She encourages active learning and problem-based learning with a digital media platform. Ms. Frierson’s goal is to teach students to build a bridge from the context of academic learning to other contexts of potential application.
