In Their Own Words

I want students to leave my classes being able and willing to use every tool they have at their disposal during the creative process. Let’s learn their rules so that you can make informed decisions about how and when to break them. The writing process is about making a mess, and then building that mess into a structure that can deliver the greatest impact, the best way you know how. We’re learning to create and support meaning, and then deliver that meaning to the world.

I have written with platinum-selling artists in many styles as well as indie bands. I have toured with international stars and in the back of a conversion van. I feel I know the breadth and width of what it means to participate in this business and have direct experience for how it is happening now—and I hope to help my students build the future that they want to see for our industry.
