About Me

I'm currently a student at Saginaw Valley State University pursuing my Bachelor's in English with minors in history and creative writing. As a young tutor, it wasn't long ago that I took high school and college writing courses, so the course materials are fresh in my memory. At SVSU, I am a member of the Honors program and will have completed my undergraduate thesis project by April. I have been recognized for my writing through both the Tyner Prize and the Braun Award for Writing Excellence. I have served as Editor-in-Chief of Cardinal Sins, a biannual literary arts journal based on SVSU's campus, for two years. During the Fall and Winter semesters, I also work as a tutor at SVSU's Writing Center and a reporter for the Valley Vanguard. I am vice president of our chapter of Sigma Tau Delta, the unfortunately named English Honors Society. I've been attracted to stories for as long as I can remember, and when my teachers gave me the opportunity to respond to these stories and write some of my own, I realized just how powerful the act of writing could be. Since I received a formal training to become a tutor through the Writing Center, I have developed a love for sharing my passion and knowledge with other students. I have tutored over 150 sessions at the Center to date. I look forward to expanding my tutoring experience and having more conversations with students in the subjects I am passionate about through Varsity Tutors. I hope to not just sharpen students' skills but also encourage their own confidence in and passion for writing.
