About Me
I teach English at an accredited, independent, college-prep high school. Before that, I worked for years as a professional writer and editor. I am immersed in writing, critical reading, research, and literary analysis. I can help you unlock the potential to flourish in school, not just get by. Helping students find the spark of connection that allows them to accomplish their academic goals is my passion. I specialize in breaking down complicated concepts in understandable, intuitive ways and in creating positive, collaborative rapport with my students. Let me help you thrive in class and become the top-notch student you're capable of being!
