I have a BA from Davidson College (English), an MA from DePaul (Writing), and a PhD from UIC (Policy Studies).
I’ve been a high school English teacher or administrator for 33 years, and I’ve worked at Naperville North, York, St. Charles North, Maine West, and Maine South. I’ve taught for 20 years, and I was an administrator on the Chair-level for 13 years. I’ve also been an adjunct professor (4 years), content-provider for albert.io (2 years), and an AP test reader/evaluator (8 years).
Along the way, I’ve tutored and/or mentored a variety of student-clients for college admissions with most of my student-clients being from Illinois. I’ve also worked virtually with students from Virginia, Pennsylvania, and Washington.
