About Me
I hold a secondary teaching certificate in English for grades 7-12, as well as a Master's Degree in Writing. I work with students to develop clear, effective, and confident academic writing. I will help you strengthen the core elements of strong writing: developing precise thesis statements, organizing ideas logically, and supporting claims with clever, relevant evidence. I will help you create a clear outline, draft with purpose, and revise strategically. I will work closely with you on analytical thinking. Whether you are writing a literary analysis, argumentative essay, or research paper, I will guide you in developing deeper, more precise interpretations, and in using evidence effectively to support your ideas. My goal is to help you recognize patterns in your writing, revise with intention, and build skills that you can apply independently across your academic work.
Hobbies & Interests
I am a writer, currently working on a novel based on a true crime story. When I am not writing, I am playing and singing with my music partner, spending time in nature, or with my son, who is currently at MIT as a freshman.
