About Me

I've been a passionate reader and writer since childhood, graduating summa cum laude from the English Honors program at SUNY Albany, where I was also Features Editor of the Albany Student Press. After two NYC internships and multiple job offers before graduation, I launched a successful career in magazine journalism and spent more than 35 years as a writer, editor, media executive and world traveler before shifting to freelance writing and tutoring. My experience spans poetry, creative writing, features, profiles, news, investigative journalism, research, marketing and business communication. I help students of all ages strengthen reading and writing skills, whether they're working on essays, literature analysis, presentations or reports. I also support college applicants with personal statements and admissions strategy, and offer career guidance including resumes, cover letters, interview prep and professional storytelling. As a former VP and Content Director for a global media company, I advise on business skills, management, sales strategies, networking and communication. My approach is friendly, flexible and tailored to each learner's goals. From fundamentals to advanced writing, I'm here to support my clients' growth and make it enjoyable.
