Hello y'all! I have always been motivated by innovative and creative educational solutions that enhance the intellectual and emotional experience for learners of all ages and have been fortunate to have played a part in doing so both academically and professionally. As I explore a new educational focus in my career, I know unequivocally that my experiences in the classroom are transferable to working specifically with YOU as a your tutor; and as someone who has benefited immensely by employment in many fashions—from many years in academia, including student tutoring and advising, to theatre education and management, I bring an established skill set to our meeting.

I am accustomed to working well with learners of all ages, and of all ethnic and socio-economic backgrounds, and students of all levels of expertise.
