I received a B.A. in English from the University of Maryland, graduating summa cum laude in 1997. I received a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from Emerson College in December 1999.

I began tutoring regularly in college, as a volunteer tutor of fellow Hebrew students and as a staff tutor at the campus Writing Center. In the 22 years since graduating, I've tutored students ranging in age from elementary-schoolers to senior citizens in ESL, reading comprehension, spelling, phonics, Hebrew, and American and world history. I also taught a poetry workshop at the Brookline (Massachusetts) Community Center for the Arts.

My poetry, book reviews, and general nonfiction have been published in several print and online venues, and I've self-published two collections of poetry and a business writing guide. I also work as a freelance editor and proofreader.

I love teaching and explaining science at every level!
