Experience

I am a professional writer committed to helping students of all ages and interests to write better, read smarter and organize your life to get your work done well and on time. I help you to: Understand your assignment. Many students lose points on their assignments because they don’t read the assignment carefully enough and don’t give the instructor what is required; Understand what you read. Read actively. Reading actively will help you to understand more of what you read and apply what you learn to address your assignments. Write effectively. I will help you to improve your writing whether it’s a matter of improving grammar, paragraph and essay structure, credible research and learning to write drafts. Organize Your Life. Organizing your life means making it possible to do what your work requires. I will coach you to develop effective study habits such as setting priorities, establish a realistic schedule; identify self-defeating habits such as procrastination and perfectionism; create helpful systems; and take advantage of useful web tools and apps. I am available to work in person or remotely using Skype, Google Hangouts and WhatsApp. Please do not contact me to write your assignments for you. This is fraud.

Hobbies

I've worked for many years in politics and social justice activism in Australia and the U.S. I enjoy blogging and current affairs. I'm a culture vulture -- enjoy food from all over the world and love reading, music, podcasts, movies and great television. I love spending time with my friends and with my daughter (in high school), my husband and our dog, Hugo. I'm also involved in interfaith education work in schools.
