Hi! I'm a professional storyteller and ghostwriter with a passion for helping young writers discover the magic of creative writing.
Throughout my career, I've crafted compelling narratives for clients and brought stories to life for diverse audiences. Now, I'm dedicated to empowering children aged 8-13 to find their unique voice and transform their vivid imaginations into captivating stories.
I understand that many children have incredible ideas but struggle to get them onto paper. That's why I created the Story Lab Method; a unique approach that makes writing an exciting adventure rather than a daunting task. In each session, we explore story sparks through engaging prompts and "what if" questions, experiment with characters and plot twists, and create original stories in a supportive, judgment-free environment.
My teaching philosophy centers on building confidence alongside skills. I believe every child has stories worth telling, and my role is to provide the tools, encouragement, and creative freedom they need to express themselves. Students learn essential writing fundamentals like character development, story structure, descriptive language while developing a genuine love for the craft.
Whether your child is a reluctant writer who needs encouragement, an enthusiastic storyteller seeking guidance, or somewhere in between, I tailor each session to their individual interests and skill level. Together, we'll overcome writer's block, celebrate their creativity, and build a portfolio of work they're truly proud of.
Let's turn your child's daydreams into stories that shine! I offer flexible online sessions that fit your family's schedule, with a free consultation to discuss your child's goals and interests.
