I have helped many children work on their writing and reading skills, most recently through my work as a literacy specialist for a public library. I have over eight years total experience in this field. Additionally, I teach English and Writing classes for adults at colleges throughout the county.
I am a Literature, Humanities, and Creative Writing scholar with several articles published in academic journals and two full-length poetry collections. I have taught English and Composition since 2004.
