I’m an Executive Function Coach and Curriculum Specialist who provides digital content editing and individual tutoring.

My Mission

I’m an English Language Arts and Literacy teacher and tutor.

I edit student and professional writing for grammar, usage, and mechanical correctness.

I help learners and adults develop executive function strategies to improve study and work habits.

Interests

1:1 Coaching and Tutoring

I have coached in various ways. After my career as a Division I volleyball player at Boston College, I coached varsity teams in multiple secondary schools. For over 15 years, I have tutored students virtually on various English Language Arts skills: grammar, composition, reading comprehension, analysis, and public speaking. I also work with neurodivergent individuals to create systems for accountability and progress.

Teacher Leadership

I believe in teacher expertise. Teachers lead in many ways: through innovative practice, disruption, and advocacy. I served as an Instructional Coach and Professional Learning Community (PLC) Facilitator, assuming leadership roles while helping colleagues meet their stated teaching goals. My Ed.D. dissertation titled “Teacher Leadership: A Case Study in the Preparation of Future Teacher Leaders” examined how one teacher education program prepared its candidates to execute leadership skills and become change agents. It’s time to support educators to lead in the classroom, on the court, and on committees.

Curriculum Design

I love teaching! As a former secondary English Language Arts teacher with 12 years of experience, I taught every high school level, from AP Literature, AP Language and Composition, American/British/World Literature, Creative Writing, Speech, and elective capstones. Curating content that is meaningful, aligned, and student-centered is a welcome challenge. I teach living authors and multicultural voices and enjoy collaborating with other English teachers.

Editing

I have read thousands of essays throughout my career as an English teacher. I have also written hundreds of essays across my own education, from analysis to a dissertation to white papers. Focusing on style and organization, I help writers improve their craft to produce pieces they are proud of. I’m fluent in the mechanics of both APA and MLA formatting. I provide editing services for remote students, graduate students, professionals, researchers, and adult learners.
