Experience
I am a college professor with almost 25 years of experience teaching coursework in the areas of composition, journalism, writing for promotional media, writing for film and television and writing for theatre. I am also certified to teach AP English Language and Composition and have certification eligibility to teach English for grades 6 - 12. As a classroom volunteer and tutor, I have worked with middle school English students assisting with various writing and special projects. Professionally, I am a screenwriter, researcher and journalist. I have worked on projects for HBO, NBC and A&E. Researching and writing about historical events has been a specialty of mine as I have penned a documentary about Operation Babylift, the evacuation of orphaned Vietnamese children during the Fall of Saigon, I provided the research for HBO's "Josephine Baker Story", and most recently I have worked with an Italian author on a book he wrote about a lynching incident that happened in Louisiana in 1899.
