What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can create inclusive learning plans for students and continue supporting clear, polished writing—working closely with families and teams to help learners grow.

I’m a preschool teacher who supervises classrooms in urban school settings and creates and implements lesson plans for students of varying abilities. I focus on practical strategies that support learning, confidence, and strong participation.

Alongside teaching, I’ve worked as a freelance editor/writer from 2008–2024, providing editing and writing services including legal briefs and memoranda, plus editing support for resumes, grants, and college and graduate school admissions materials. I also tutor through Brainfuse, reviewing college and graduate-level papers for grammar and content and supporting clients across English, political science, sociology, journalism, and criminal justice.

I founded and instructed Pro Libris Tutorials, designing and teaching online literature and social science courses for teens and young adults while working independently with students and families on customized educational programs. Earlier, I served as a teacher and site administrator with Head Start grantee agencies, directing staff and supporting diverse learners, and I remain driven by that same mix of education, mentorship, and clear communication—grounded in my MA in Teaching with concentrations in Early Childhood and Elementary Education.
