Dr. Jessica Estep earned a doctorate in rhetoric and composition from Georgia State University, a master's degree in creative writing from Boston University, and a bachelor's degree in English from Harvard University. While her research and writing interests span from fiction to feminist methodologies to public rhetoric, she particularly enjoys teaching composition to first-year students.

Estep lives with her husband and two children in Atlanta, and when not teaching or writing, she enjoys bicycling, gardening, working out, and knitting.
