SUMMARY

Early in my career, I worked at an e-commerce tech start-up in New York City, doing marketing and business communications, and at another start-up in Washington D.C., as an Editorial Director for an online media network. While in D.C., I also wrote a biweekly column for a local newspaper.

For the past ten years, I've been teaching (mostly Catholic) homeschoolers in one form or another: most recently at Kolbe Academy Online, where, in addition to teaching full time, I wrote curricula, created online seminars, produced instructional videos, and ran the student newsletter club.
