"I have an extensive background teaching writing and working with students of all ages. I'm especially skilled at helping students feel empowered as they become confident writers. I have experience working with students on: college application essays, middle and high school in-school essays and English assignments, private school entrance essays, summer program applications and creative writing/film portfolio development. I have a B.A. from Yale University in Humanities and an MFA from NYU's Tisch School of the Arts in Film.
