writing
experience
I earned a B.A. from Reed College
in Portland, Oregon, where I pursued a double major in
Literature and Theatre. My thesis
was on the “business” plays of David Mamet, so I suppose it’s not such a
surprise I should end up working in a field related to real estate. I worked for three years as a writing
instructor with Free Street Programs, teaching theatre and creative writing to
students in the Chicago Public Schools. I also had the pleasure of working
in conjunction with Columbia
College to produce a book of short
poems and creative fiction which was written by my 7th grade students
at the Helen
C. Peirce School
. In 2005, I was honored to be a guest lecturer
at Columbia College Chicago for their career seminar, “Designing Vocation.”
