I'm hoping to expand my casual, friends and friends-of-friends editing, tutoring and coaching services into something more polished and professional. I'm an adjunct composition instructor in the City Colleges and an undergraduate reading and writing specialist at National Louis University, and I'm interested in learning about opportunities in educational publishing. I'm also a writer, polishing a novel and dabbling in short stories, essays and criticism building my publication list. But mostly, I just love books and words and the punctuation that pins them together.

(I'm also a big nerd about cats, fairy tales, and dollhouses, if that's your cup of tea.)
