Literature

With over a decade of experience as an English professor and writing coach, I specialize in literature, composition, and creative writing. I hold an MA in English Literature and MFA in Fiction. I've studied with celebrated authors, as well as completed my first novel. I’ve developed lessons and worksheets to make literary analysis, research, and writing accessible and engaging. My goal is to help students find their unique voice and approach literature with confidence and curiosity.

Public Speaking

With a background as both a drama teacher and a university communication instructor, I bring practical experience and academic expertise to tutoring public speaking. I teach my students techniques to confidently engage audiences, structure persuasive messages, and use body language effectively. My approach combines foundational communication principles with performance skills honed in drama, ensuring students feel both prepared and at ease in front of any audience. I am passionate about helping students develop their unique voices and connect with others through the art of public speaking.
