Bio

I am an award-winning writer with more than 25 years of experience in my field. During my time as a professional writer, I've realized how difficult it can be to develop a strong command of the English language. With all of the rules that come along with reading and writing in English, it's no wonder so many people struggle with it.

I am an award-winning writer with more than 25 years of experience in my field. During my time as a professional writer, I've realized how difficult it can be to develop a strong command of the English language. With all of the rules that come along with reading and writing in English, it's no wonder so many people struggle with it.

In addition to my years of experience practicing my craft, I possess a BA in Journalism, with a minor concentration in English Literature. I have a strong command of the English language and am well-versed in essay and thesis writing, as well as teaching the basics of the English language. I had the benefit of an adviser in college who was a former journalist himself, and he taught me to be persistent and patient while chasing a story, while honing my communication, storytelling and writing skills. I also had the benefit of stellar professors in English Literature, who taught me an appreciation of, and understanding of, our great language and the many works crafted in it.

I am able to effectively tutor in subjects involving reading, writing, editing and research papers. I also am available to help craft and critique college essay questions and other written assignments. Lastly, as a marketing and communications specialist for the last 15 years, I can tutor in SEO copywriting, marketing, and public relations. Small business owners find my expertise in these areas invaluable when learning how to do marketing and communications for their brands. I believe that learning to master the English language is a journey, not a destination, and look forward to helping my students enjoy the journey!
