Sophia Ziemer

Born and raised in Miami, Sophia Ziemer (she/her) grew up in a uniquely mixed-heritage family. She moved to Tallahassee in 2018 to attend Tallahassee State College. After falling in love with everything the city had to offer, she transferred to Florida State University and earned a B.A. in English-Editing, Writing, and Media (with honors) in 2022. She then earned an M.A .in Rhetoric and Composition in 2024, also at FSU. She is a proud 3x FSU English student. 

Sophia's research interests are somewhat expansive and vary depending on the day. Her current interests lie at the intersection of multicultural rhetorics and rhetorics of identity. She has previously conducted qualitative research on first-year composition knowledge transfer and student attitudes toward required writing courses and content. She is also deeply interested in writing center studies, digitality, and humorous pedagogical approaches.
