Jennifer Clary-Lemon is a Professor and Associate Chair of Graduate Studies in the Department of English at the University of Waterloo. She holds a PhD in English (Rhetoric, Composition, and Linguistics) from Arizona State University, an MA in English (Writing, Rhetoric, and Discourse) from DePaul University, and a BA in Political Science from the University of Arizona. Her research bridges rhetoric, environmental studies, and new materialism, focusing on human-nonhuman entanglements, species decline mitigation, and place-based scholarship.
Clary-Lemon’s work explores how infrastructures and discourses shape responses to ecological crises, as seen in her monographs *Planting the Anthropocene* (2019) and *Nestwork* (2023). She has held SSHRC grants for projects on species decline and Canadian silviculture discourses, and was a Fulbright Canada awardee in 2011. Her teaching philosophy emphasizes writing’s role in university culture and the impact of geographic/personal location on rhetorical agency.
Her advising expertise spans material rhetorics, environmental rhetorics, research methods, and pedagogy. She currently oversees graduate studies at Waterloo, reflecting her commitment to fostering scholarly communities through mentorship and institutional leadership.
