Short Bio
I'm a teacher, writer, performance poet, actor, and activist. While real estate pays the bills, these other endeavors keep my spirit going. This is my sixth season as a writer and actor with SPT Theatre’s “Tales from the Writers’ Room” series. With SPT, I launched the first NewBo PoJam this year and am working to make this a semi-annual event. A mother of two, I balance my passion for literature, education, culture, and the arts with dedication to, and love for, my family.
