Throughout my teaching experience spanning nearly three decades I have spearheaded literature-based projects in transdisciplinary learning environments. I have always been the "go to" person in terms of writing projects, both modeling and guiding throughout the process and doing the same in the final editing stages. Possessing a sharp eye for keen critical analysis has endowed me with the ability to capture audiences, and my enthusiasm and effective communication skills have inspired writers-in-process. Poetry analysis, an especially challenging writing task for many, can be counted among one of my strengths as I find the hard work it involves extremely gratifying. I am fluent in both written and spoken French and Spanish along with my native English.
