My background is in literature, particularly that of the 19th century. I'm especially fond of Victorians and modernists, such as Oscar Wilde and James Joyce, though I also enjoy American Gothic, particularly the works of Flannery O'Connor and Edgar Allan Poe.

I believe education brings independence of thought. My intention is not to tell people what to think but to assist them to identify resources, analyze them and arrive at independent conclusions. I also seek to help individuals express themselves both verbally and in writing in the most informed and effective way.
