Hello everybody! For over twenty-five years I've nurtured children, teens, and college students, giving them individual attention to ignite their creative and academic spark.  I believe in asking students to think for themselves. In return, I aim to provide them with fascinating sessions filled with kindness and creativity. 

     If you're looking for writing help, whether it's drafting a novel or other book length project, or for someone to work with your child to boost their writing and academics, I can help. No matter what your age, I can help you get your writing to the next level--especially for those who want to tackle longer creative projects--i.e. a collection of stories, novel, memoir, or non-fiction book.

     I have an MFA from Syracuse University where I was a University Fellow, and a BA from Smith College where I won many prizes in fiction and playwriting. I'm also a published fiction author with a background in analytic philosophy. I've taught critical thinking skills & rhetoric at Hampden Sydney College, Longwood University, and Syracuse University, as well as workshops on time management, organizing, and study skills at Smith College. I've studied fiction writing with a truly amazing array of instructors, including: George Saunders, Amy Hempel, Mary Caponegro, Arthur Flowers, Chris Kennedy, Dean Albarelli, and Farnoosh Moshiri. I've studied screenplay writing with Richard Dubin and Tom Seeley, and playwriting with Len Berkman.

     I live in Virginia, in a little cottage where I enjoy gardening, rowing, and baking.
