How can I help?

Online, you’ll find me doing two things.

One. I write. I edit. I help you write and edit. If you’re looking for my grant writing, copy editing, or English tutoring services, click here.

Two. I’m passionate about green living (low waste, recycling, composting, gardening… all the good stuff) and minimalism. I'm a Texas Master Composter and a Recycling Ambassador for my city. If you’re looking for my blog, click here.


In my spare time, you’ll find me obsessing over my dogs, traveling the world with my husband, and reading way too much fiction.
