I’m thrilled to offer the following services:

• Writing and Publishing: As a published writer, I help individuals bring their stories to life through memoirs and historical narratives. Whether you want your memoir published for a broader audience or kept private to share with your children and grandchildren, I offer guidance and support through the entire writing process to ensure your story is preserved and passed down for generations.
• Historical Research: I conduct in-depth research to uncover the rich history of properties and the families who lived there. Through detailed deed searches, I help clients learn about their house’s past and explore whether previous owners had any significance within the community. Additionally, I offer genealogy research using platforms like Ancestry.com and other resources to help individuals connect with and understand their family histories.
• Educational Services: With over 20 years of experience in public education, I have worked across K-12 settings, including supporting elementary students in the resource room, assisting high school students with college and career planning, and substitute teaching for grades 6-12. I now offer tutoring for students and adults of all ages in English, reading, writing, and history. Additionally, I guide individuals who want to write their life stories or conduct historical research, providing personalized support to help them achieve their creative and academic goals.
• Podcasting: Join the conversation! I host relaxed, insightful discussions with writers, historians, and creatives who share stories that spark curiosity, creativity, and inspiration. Do you have a story to share, a message to promote, or a creative work like a book, music, or art you’d like to showcase? I’d love to hear from you and explore the possibility of featuring your story on the podcast.
• Landscape Photography: Explore the beauty of the world through my original photographs, which I capture to reflect themes of history and storytelling. These captivating images are available as high-quality prints in various formats. I also offer customizable greeting cards—choose a box featuring a single print or a mix of designs that appeal to your preferences.
• Community Building: I offer a hands-on educational program designed to help children and adults understand how local government functions and how their decisions impact the community. Through interactive activities and practical learning experiences, participants gain the knowledge and tools needed to engage with and strengthen their communities. This program typically takes four weeks to complete. The focus is fostering civic awareness, responsibility, and meaningful connections.
