Since high school, I have been passionate about storytelling. To utilize my words, skills, and love for writing, I want to expand my career goals into the world of freelancing. I recently received my Master’s of English and Writing to work towards this goal. It is important to me to keep humanity and connection in writing, which is done through passionate, human writers. As a current high school English teacher, an avid reader, and a video game player, I live in a world where people seek comfort and creativity in the escape from reality. I carry the stories of my students and beloved characters every day; I seek to continue this world of content where storytelling is grounded in human experience. I am a mother of a 19 -month- old growing boy and soon-to-be mother of a newborn. My husband and I found our deep friendship through the Star Wars trilogy, which adapted and transformed into so many other fantasy worlds. I have dreams of writing my own novels one day, but I love being able to put words to a page, a feeling, or an adventure.…Since high school, I have been passionate about storytelling.
