I have a Ph.D. in English and have been a professor of communication and education for two decades, during which time I have directed writing and speaking programs at some of the most prestigious colleges in the US. I have published two international award-winning academic books on writing education and have been recognized with several university-wide and national teaching and leadership awards. Most importantly, I LOVE to teach. I bring to this class robust experience teaching writing and a love of helping young people build confidence in using their voices. I began my career teaching middle school creative writing and am thrilled to return to working with this age group.
