"Educational Background: I hold a Creative Writing Certificate from Wesleyan University, which has given me a strong foundation in storytelling, literary analysis, and various writing techniques.

Tutoring/Teaching Experience: With over 15 years of professional experience as a writer, I have honed my ability to convey complex writing concepts in an accessible way. In 2009, I was awarded Blog of the Year by a prominent online forum, highlighting my skill and dedication to effective communication and engaging content creation. I have also worked with students of various ages to develop their creative and academic writing skills. My tutoring approach focuses on nurturing each student’s unique voice while building confidence and proficiency in writing.

Published Works and Ongoing Projects: As a published author, I have written six children's books that blend imaginative storytelling with relatable themes. Currently, I am writing a mystery novel, further showcasing my versatility as a writer. This experience allows me to provide insight into the entire writing process, from brainstorming and drafting to revising and publishing.

Teaching Context: My teaching experience includes one-on-one tutoring sessions where I tailor lessons to the student’s needs, whether they are elementary-aged children exploring writing for the first time or adults looking to sharpen their creative writing skills. I create a supportive and engaging learning environment that fosters growth, creativity, and skill development." less...
