Hi, I’m Evi Wusk—Evi rhymes with Chevy. I’m glad you’re here.
I work as an assistant professor of education and writing at Nebraska Wesleyan University. My writing has appeared in EdSurge, Her View From Home, Learning and Leading, and a some academic journals. My writing started here over 14 years ago, with a blog I called Gratitude Gal. In many ways I’m still that gal mining the daily for gratitude, trying to find the sparkly bits and write about ’em.
I live and write in small town Sterling Nebraska with my husband, two kiddos and crazy Boxer, Coco.
