Experience
I have a Bachelor of Arts and a Master of Arts in English from Loyola Marymount University, and a Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing from Antioch University. I was also a Teaching Fellow and Lecturer at Loyola Marymount. I was hired in 2004 as an Assistant Professor of English and Creative Writing at Hampton University. I am currently the interim Chair of the Department of English and Foreign Languages and my department's adviser for the study abroad program in Bath, England. I have given lectures in Greece and Malaysia, and I have taught in England. I am an expert in composition, creative writing, MLA, and APA. I have over 25 years of experience teaching students how to sharpen their writing skills, develop critical thinking, and become confident readers. I am an excellent teacher and tutor, and look forward to working with you or your child on Reading, Writing, Essay Editing, Literature, English Grammar and Syntax, College Essays, IB Extended Essay, Public Speaking, English, High School English, College English, and Comparative Literature. When I'm not involved with academics, I enjoy traveling, shopping, going to movies and cultural events, and visiting nature centers. I love taking walks along the beach, reading, and singing.
