Talented and trusted media professional for 28 years; able to assist with creative writing techniques
Methodology
My teaching method is getting students to enjoy the process of writing creatively. After taking in their feedback, I hope to inform students about my background and some of the methods that I have used to write about a variety of topics.
Background
I have worked in professional media for 28 years, writing for newspapers in Florida and Tennessee and also working for NBA and college sports websites. I also have extensive TV experience with entities such as ESPN, Fox Sports Florida and Spectrum. I have been tutoring college and high school classes about writing techniques for years.
