Hi! I'm a writer and a visual artist born in South Africa and raised around the world. For the past year, I've taught and tutored students in SAT, ACT, and reading and writing enrichment in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

The less I lecture, the more my students are figuring things out for themselves; and in the long run, that kind of information is more likely to stick.
