About Me

I studied at New York University and received a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Drama, with a minor in music. I have worked as an editor for novelists, a tutor for young writers, and a music and drama teacher for students of all ages. I tutor creative writing, English, literature, music, piano, and public speaking! The first thing I do when I sit down with new students is to find out a little about them: What are their interests? What do they already know? More often than not, we can make progress in leaps and bounds by connecting the problems they are trying to tackle with the things they are already passionate about! My tutoring philosophy is not 'repeat after me,' but rather, 'how can I work with you to find the way that this will make the most sense to you.' Not only is it easier that way, but it's also much more fun. When I'm not tutoring, I work as a writer, composer, and actor. For example, I was recently the music assistant on the Broadway show 'The Visit'! I love the subjects that I teach. Communication, wisdom, problem solving and fun are all at the core of language, literature, and music, and I feel so lucky that I get to share my enthusiasm for these subjects with my students!
