I’m a writer, teacher, editor and coach (she/her/hers) from Baltimore, now living just outside of Philadelphia. I’ve held editorial positions with Iron City Magazine, 3Elements Literary Review and West Trade Review. I hold an MFA in creative writing from University of Maryland, and I teach courses at the college level ranging from developmental and ELL to creative writing, both fiction and nonfiction. I work with ARTS By The People as a resident artist, where I facilitate the annual Writing LAB Summer Residency.

I’ve developed strong antennae for what can help a piece become its clearest and most powerful self. I love working with writers to help them actualize their ideas according to their own authentic vision or sets of truths. I believe in writing as an act of strength, and a tool toward an empowered life. It’s my joy and passion to help writers hone and honor their voices.
