I am the managerial editor of the International Journal of Linguistics, Literature, and Culture--a peer reviewed academic journal. I was also the editor in chief of another peer reviewed academic journal called The Philological Review. I held that position for several years. My papers have been accepted for presentation at many academic conferences throughout the country.

Andrew Nelson is an Assistant Professor of English on the main campus at Vincennes University; at which, he begins his second year. Nelson began his career in higher education in 2006 as athletic staff at St. Louis Community College, and upon completing his MA in English, Nelson began teaching in the 2009-2010 schoolyear.

Nelson taught at three colleges and universities in the St. Louis metropolitan area. Beginning the 2014-2015 schoolyear, Nelson held an Instructorship at the University of Arkansas at Monticello, where he taught: writing, technical writing, film, literature, and freshman seminar.

Nelson currently edits a peer reviewed academic journal with a global readership, and he publishes in the areas of film, rhetoric, and writing studies. Nelson’s educational philosophy can be summed up in one succinct phrase: students come first.
