As an experienced writing tutor with a Bachelor of Arts in Literature and a concentration in Creative Writing from UC Santa Cruz, I bring a wealth of expertise to my tutoring sessions. My diverse background includes working as a Literacy, Art, and Technology Teaching Artist with Audacity Performing Arts, where I engage K-6 students through storytelling and collaborative activities. This role has honed my ability to create supportive and engaging learning environments.

In addition to my teaching experience, I have been a self-employed Literacy and Writing Coach with Creative Clarity Coaching since 2020. Here, I provide personalized coaching to adult clients, helping them overcome creative blockages and enhance their writing skills. My approach involves developing tailored curricula that address individual needs, managing client communications, and leveraging digital tools to support learning.

Previously, as a Youth Organizer with Californians for Justice, I led youth-driven campaigns and facilitated leadership workshops, further refining my skills in organizing, outreach, and strategic planning. Additionally, my role as a Community Outreach Coordinator at UCSC’s Rachel Carson Garden involved promoting sustainable agriculture and engaging students through educational events.

With a background in community outreach, event planning, and literacy coaching, I am well-equipped to support students in developing their writing skills. My bilingual abilities in Spanish and English, combined with my strong communication skills and proficiency in digital tools, enable me to connect with a diverse range of learners effectively. I am committed to fostering a productive and enriching learning experience for each of my students.
