I am currently a Creative Writing teacher at a brick-and-mortar middle school, where I have been fostering young writers' creativity and honing their writing skills. In addition to my teaching experience, I have published several short stories and am actively pursuing traditional publication for my novel. My dedication to the craft is further evidenced by the numerous books I've read and the various classes I've attended on creative writing. This background equips me with both practical teaching skills and real-world writing experience, which I am excited to bring to our Creative Writing Club.
