Greetings, and

Welcome to my Portfolio!

I'm thrilled to have you here! My name is Jason Custer and I am passionate about teaching, research, administration, mentorship, and tutoring. Following a series of unprecedented budget cuts, multiple programs will be shuttered, and faculty across several programs at my current institution received layoff notices—myself included. As a result, I am searching for a new institution to continue doing the work I love—helping students develop as writers, thinkers, designers, citizens and communicators.

​

I have several years of experience teaching, designing, and assessing technical writing, First Year Composition, courses on rhetoric and video games, and a teacher preparation course on using new media in the classroom, and I hope my enthusiasm for these topics comes across throughout this portfolio. The content here is intended to highlight my professional identity, but if you'd like to know a bit more about me as a person—something I've found that job documents struggle with as a genre—I welcome you to visit and follow my Twitter account.
