Author Visits
As an author with varied areas of expertise, I would love to visit your school! For the students of all grade levels, I teach creative writing workshops, picture book making, how to start blogging, and how to self-publish their work. I also provide health, fitness, and wellness seminars for grades 6-12 and your staff. Each course is designed to fit the needs of each group.
