Item Description

I work with clients to identify and clarify their vision for their life and work, and to chisel away internal and external blocks to its full expression. Attuning to each person’s circumstances and personality, I create individualized programs to help clients develop the habits and capacities they need to enact their goals.

I have many years’ experience with learning and creativity:

• As a project manager I have been privileged to work with brilliant thinkers to integrate educational technology with a research-based K–6 curriculum. Drawing on Jean Piaget's developmental psychology, this curriculum integrates academic and social-emotional development. It supports professional learning by providing teachers with materials that engage and motivate students, develop critical thinkers, and promote reflection about learning and community.

• As a writer focused on avant-garde poetics I’ve published three books and numerous chapbooks, and have seen my work published widely in magazines and anthologies. I’m the recipient of the Leo Litwak Fiction Award and 3 grant-supported writing residencies. From 2009–2011, I was an Affiliate Artist at Headlands Center for the Arts.

• As a creative writing teacher at University of San Francisco, San Francisco State University, Santa Clara University, California Poets in the Schools, and in private workshops and consults, I’ve helped thousands of people access their creativity and use it to shape vibrant art.

• As a student of diverse art forms and somatic practices, I’ve studied theater, flute, figure drawing, dance, Tai Chi, yoga, Qi Gong, TRE (trauma release exercise), EFT (emotional freedom technique), and Focusing. I’ve created and performed multimedia pieces incorporating various combinations of poetry, recorded and live voice, movement, still images, and film. I’ve practiced meditation for the past 20 years, and in 2015 did my first month-long silent meditation retreat.
