About

I’m a writer and college-level instructor specializing in composition, currently teaching in the School of Critical Studies at California Institute of the Arts. I’ve spent over a decade teaching writing and literature, working with students across disciplines and levels, and helping them develop clarity, confidence, and a strong sense of voice.

My teaching approach centers on process. I treat writing as something built through revision, experimentation, and conversation rather than something students are simply expected to “get right.” I design classes that are structured but lively, where students actively engage, challenge ideas, and learn from each other.

What makes me effective is that I meet students where they are while still pushing them forward. I’m clear, direct, and deeply invested in their progress, and I know how to make even hesitant writers feel capable and engaged.
