Education

Northwestern University - BA, English Literature

Experience

I completed my undergraduate studies at Northwestern University and then went on to Loyola Law School. I then became a defense attorney for white collar criminal law. I then joined the attorney's office for the city of Los Angeles and worked as a prosecutor for 30 years. I understand as a lawyer how important effective communication via speaking and writing are. I love to show others how fun it can be to present persuasive arguments, whether it's an academic paper, college application, presentation, or something else. I am looking forward to tutoring students in writing, editing, English grammar and syntax, and other aspects of English. When I have some free time, I like to ski, walk my dogs, read, travel, and edit screenplays.
