STEPHEN M. KROMKA PH.D.

Impassioned Educator, Top 1% Communication Studies Researcher, Engaged Community Member

Hello, hello! My name is Stephen Kromka ("Dr. K") and I am a tenure-track Assistant Professor in the Department of Communication at The University of Tampa. I hold a Ph.D. in Communication Studies with my primary emphasis in Instructional Communication and my secondary emphasis in Family Communication. My research focuses on narrative pedagogy; how instructor narratives may influence student learning in the classroom. Some of my current research interests include instructor self-disclosure, classroom content relevance, family storytelling, parental divorce impact on children, and putative secrets in the family.

​

I am a strategic storytelling coach, instructor, speaker, and consultant. Moreover, I teach workshops in areas such as personal branding, LinkedIn page development, and team-building.

​

Do you seek assistance to highlight your personal brand or the backstory of your business? Interested in a workshop to build healthy team member relationships and resolve conflicts? In need of a high-energy speaker for your next event? Please contact me. I look forward to helping you share your story.
