I am a Stanford English major who works with high schoolers on school writing assignments and college entrance essays. I teach adults, and middle and high school students, to strengthen their creative writing skills. I am also a DSHS certified medical interpreter who can help you with written and spoken Spanish language acquisition.

While attaining my English degree, I represented Stanford in the Elie Wiesel Prize in Ethics Contest, as well as being selected to study at Stanford’s English Literature program at Oxford University. I have published three books on Amazon about creative thinking and intuition.

The students I have coached in essay prep for college have gained entrance into Duke, NYU, Columbia, and the University of Washington. When I worked in tech as a content marketing director, I managed the production of 50,000 words a month, with up to 11 writers working for me at one time to cover 5+ in-house blogs, 7 marketing partner content channels, and all company PR and website copy. I can edit, coach, and refine writing very quickly.

I recently tutored a 9- and 11-year-old set of siblings to gain entrance into Sevenoaks School in Kent, England. They had to write an extemporaneous essay in under 30 minutes that included certain language elements like simile, metaphor, onomatopoeia, alliteration, and hyperbole. Both passed the exam. I’m now still tutoring them in creative writing and helping them create anthologies of their work.

I am a certified DSHS medical interpreter in Spanish. I work in hospitals around Seattle assisting with simultaneous, live translation of conversations both in person and on the phone. I taught the University of Washington School of Medicine’s “Spanish for Medical Personnel” class for two years, leading 1-hour, small-group sessions for dental, medical, and pharmaceutical students.

I’ve also taught general Spanish courses and tutored several doctors and nurses in medical Spanish.

Approved Subjects

Creative Writing

Creative Writing

I'd love to help you bring forth your brilliant creative ideas, consistently. I have tools and methods for getting your words onto the page or screen. I studied English Literature at Stanford and Oxford Universities. I've taught creative writing classes and retreats for over 20 years. I use the principles of improvisational theater, like "Yes, and...," as well as basic story building techniques around conflict, tension, goals, character clarity, and so much more. The world needs your gifts. It's a natural and joyful process to create. I have full faith in your abilities already and I'd love to work with you.
Public Speaking

Public Speaking

I've been a top rated speaker at many Microsoft global conferences and that is because I have a strategy to both teach and entertain. I bring my years in improvisational acting and instruction, as well as standup comedy and musical performance, to help you not only organize your talk but make it captivating. I have a strong bias toward entertainment. This isn't being superficial or fake, this is being aware of what people want and how self-focused they are. If you can feed their longing to be acknowledged, to grow, and to have fun, you will win them over every time. Please let me help you. I promise we'll enjoy the experience and you'll learn more about your style and natural abilities. And, it will be fun!
Yoga

Yoga

I teach Bikram and Power Vinyasa at several studios in Seattle. I've practiced yoga for over 15 years. I am nearly 50 and am adamant that we can all continue to build strength and flexibility as we age - perhaps just a bit more gently. I love to get into the specifics of poses and how to hold them for maximum benefit. I'm also a huge fan of addressing to any current aches or pains and trying to counteract our very forward-focused, modern lives by opening our front bodies and strengthening our back bodies. I would love to work with you, either by forming a group or working 1:1. Cheers to your health!
