advertisement for myself

I have a Ph.D. in English and twenty years of experience working in academia as both a teacher and an administrator. My scholarship examines various intersections between literature and the visual arts. As an administrator I did advanced research development including grant writing in nearly every area of the humanities and social sciences. I also worked in medicine and in the technology industry. I now work freelance as a writer and researcher. I specialize in developing materials for presentation and publication such as teaching, lectures, and exhibits. Please send me an email if you would like to know more about my work and what I might be able to do for you.

1. Critics and Connoisseurs

What is
there in being able
to say that one has dominated the stream in an attitude of self-defense;
in proving that one has had the experience
of carrying a stick?


2. Those Various Scalpels

Are they weapons or scalpels?
Whetted to brilliance
by the hard majesty of that sophistication which is superior to opportunity,

these things are rich instruments with which to experiment
But why dissect destiny with instruments
more highly specialized than components of destiny itself?

--Marianne Moore
