I’m an Adjunct Professor of Critical Reading and Writing at Ramapo College of New Jersey and English Composition at Union College of Union County, New Jersey (UCNJ). I teach students how to write with clarity and conciseness while incorporating a creative edge that makes their writing interesting.

Student readiness for college has been on the decline and I see it in action every semester; I can work with your student to get their skills up to where they need to be so they can focus on the core requirements of their writing assignments and less on mechanics and grammar.

Traditional rules are important, but advanced writing is crisp and to the point while also displaying a personal flair and conversational element. I show students the tricks that help them write their teacher’s favorite papers and earn college acceptance letters.
