Personal Statement
I am a former teacher of special needs children at the middle and high school level in the School District of Philadelphia. I have consulted with school districts nationally in the areas of instructional strategies, leadership development, and middle school writing. I have spent the past three years working on an initiative bringing the Freedom Writers Diary program to the Philadelphia area. My most recent book is called Voices of Teens: Writers Matter –Lives in the City, based on my work with middle school students in Philadelphia. I co-direct the Leadership and Global Understanding minor at the University and have offered travel study courses the past eight years to over 12 countries. In 2006, I received the Provost's Distinguished Faculty Service Award.
