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

Role: Applied Improv Facilitator

  • I’m facilitated a writing and applied improv workshop at the Literary Arts Bridge at Dartmouth College for the Dartmouth Writing Club in November 2025 and facilitated another one for the larger Hanover and Dartmouth community in April 2026. I offer improv prompts as writing exercises and layer in constraints. Participants were amazed how much more work they produced with constraints.

  • I’m currently booking additional corporate applied improvisation workshops Q2-Q3 2026.

Role: Writer/Editor

  • My contemporary romance novel is in my agent’s hands for next steps. I’m working on a second contemporary romance novel.

  • I’m a published nonfiction author (Wiley, 2011). I was nominated for a Pushcart for micro fiction. My poetry has been published in various journals.

  • I have my MFA in Writing and Literature and teach writing and writing & improv 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

  • Leaning about and performing short form improv with Valley Improv has been so much fun. We have shows coming up this spring 2026 at Sawtooth in Hanover, NH. Hope to see you at one of those!

  • I’m a founding member of the musical improv team, Redshirts, which has been going strong since 2014. We have shows coming up in NYC. 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

  • I’ve been mentoring psychology majors (all women) heading to graduate programs at William Paterson University since 2014. It’s gratifying to support young women navigate school-life balance as well as prepare them for graduate school and their professional lives.

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

  • Two summers ago, 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 two years!
