About Kathryn


Bio

I have a Masters of Arts in Playwriting and Dramatic Literature from the University of Cincinnati, an MFA in Fiction Writing from the University of Houston, and a PhD in Creative Writing and Literature, also from the University of Houston. I love working with students in the K-12 system, college students, and adult professionals who just want to learn more about the English language or about writing.

I have a Masters of Arts in Playwriting and Dramatic Literature from the University of Cincinnati, an MFA in Fiction Writing from the University of Houston, and a PhD in Creative Writing and Literature, also from the University of Houston. I love working with students in the K-12 system, college students, and adult professionals who just want to learn more about the English language or about writing.

I have been a college instructor for over 30 years, and have worked in the K-12 setting for over 25. Most recently, I worked with young writers in Houston's Writers in the Schools program, and college students at the University of Houston and the University of North Carolina School for the arts. I also work as a dissertation coach helping students finish their master's theses and doctoral dissertations. I believe everyone has at least one story to tell or a set of poems inside them, and I can help draw that out. I can also help with more practical types of documents, like cover letters and resumes, college and grad school essays, and homework for English classes of all levels. Basically, if it's related to English, drama, or public speaking, it's going to be in my wheelhouse! :)

Approved Subjects

Public Speaking

Public Speaking

In both high school and college, I competed on the speech team in events such as the illustrated talk, persuasive speaking, and dramatic interpretation. At James Madison University (my undergrad alma mater), I placed regularly at district and regional tournaments and was ranked nationally. In high school, I placed first in the region and third in the state of Virginia in the Beta Club's public speaking competition, and won a gold medal in public speaking in the national Future Homemakers of America tournament.
