I have an extensive background in higher education, with specialties in writing, research, and online learning. Academic coaching, at all levels, has been a significant focus of my career, which includes instruction, writing center leadership, and academic publishing.
In particular, teaching first-year composition courses for 12 years at Fort Lewis College (Durango, CO) allows a special knack for building and bridging essential skills for high school students. As a writer, I began with journalism before earning an MFA in writing, with a focus on creative nonfiction and teaching writing.
My approach is very writer-centered. Critical thinkers make the best writers! I like to allow discovery and reflection along the way, to instill more confidence and independence.
I can help! I work well online and encourage students in the Telluride or Dolores area to contact me for face-to-face sessions.
