WHAT I’M WORKING ON RIGHT NOW

(Inspired by Derek Sivers)

Role: Executive & Professional ICF Associate Certified Coach (ACC)

Role: Licensed Master Social Worker & Food Allergy Coach

  • Since 2006, I’ve worked with private practice food allergy coaching clients and supported them with life-threatening food allergies and anxiety. I continue to see a limited number of private practice coaching clients dealing with issues around managing chronic medical conditions, life transitions, creative blocks, and professional challenges.

Role: Applied Improv Facilitator

  • I’m in the middle of negotiations to bring my musical improv colleague Avery Bargar to NESA for their summer camp in August. We’ll teach a musical improv workshop series for grades 7-12!

  • I facilitated a multi-session series of creative writing and improvisation first period workshops for the kids of New England School of the Arts which has now concluded. So much fun and learning! We exploring options for a fall series.

  • I facilitated a series of 90-minute improvisation and writing evening workshops at Howe Library this winter/spring. What a joy!

  • I’m currently booking additional corporate applied improvisation workshops for Q3 2025. Contact me if this you.

Role: Writer/Editor

  • I’m writing, editing, and revising a contemporary romance novel and I’m having so much fun! My agent at Massie & McQuilkin is aiming to submit within the next few months. Stay tuned!

  • I’m a published nonfiction author, and my book is still in print after over a decade!

  • I have my MFA in Writing and Literature and frequently teach writing workshops.

  • For over 15 years, I’ve been a freelance editor, line editor, copy editor, and proofreader. Most recently, I worked for Medium.com and HelloFresh.

Role: Musical Improviser/Performer

  • I auditioned for Valley Improv and have been invited to join! This is my first new team IRL (*I was part of several over Zoom in the past 5 years). My personal challenge in joining is to have playful, silly, fun with new people IRL and to continue to sharpen my non-musical improv skills.

  • I’ve been performing improv and musical improv on New York City stages since 2012.

  • I’m a founding member of the musical improv team, Redshirts, which has been going strong since 2014. Check our Facebook and Insta pages for upcoming shows and dates.

  • I’m a founding member of two additional non-musical improv teams that are currently active: The Bagelsteins & Close to Home. It’s a joy to play with them.

Role: Mentor

Role: Master Home Chef & Pastry Chef (all dishes are nut-free, fish-free, and most are gluten-free)

  • Last summer, I made this focaccia recipe, adding garlic-herb with four cheese and now my in-laws are so obsessed, I’ve been making it bi-weekly for a year.
