Sneak peek about me…

I’ve always enjoyed a good story. I love words: simple, grand, clever, colorful; I appreciate how they convey personality.

I live north of Boston with my husband and rescue dog. I am the mom to a college grad, a college senior and a college freshman.

and a little bit more…

As an English teacher and adjunct writing instructor by trade, I most enjoy connecting with teens. Their emerging adulthood and perspective on life engages me, and I find great value in helping them learn about themselves, and I find joy in their accomplishments.
