In Their Own Words

"Writing is about so much more than little black marks on white paper. It is a language in and of itself, one that opens doors, bridges human divides, and heals."

"My experience working as an educator for almost 15 years—from teaching students in elementary school to middle school to high school and college—as well as my work as a college access guidance counselor, an author, and an editor, fuels me each and every time I enter the classroom. One of my favorite teaching philosophies: education is not about filling boxes but about lighting fires. I try to bring this energy to each and every class."
