About Michael
My journey into creative writing didn’t begin in a classroom—it began in war zones. While serving in the military, stationed in places where uncertainty hung heavy in the air, I turned to reading and writing as a way to process fear, stress, and the chaos around me. Over time, what started as therapy became craft. I began writing my own stories—stories that others found moving, powerful, and worth reading. That discovery lit a spark. After returning home, I started tutoring a family’s three children in English and creative writing. Over six years, I helped them raise not only their grades but their confidence and love of language. In college, I continued tutoring classmates, and even now, I work with online writers—especially those crafting web novels—to shape their ideas and polish their work for readers hungry for good storytelling. I specialize in working with students who don’t naturally love reading or writing. I get it. But I believe when people understand the power of words—how they inform, inspire, and influence—they begin to care. I make learning fun, relevant, and real, from writing essays and stories to breaking down news articles and understanding media bias. Helping people become confident readers, writers, and thinkers isn’t just my job—it’s my passion.

Once upon a time, a student sat staring at a blank page, the cursor blinking like a heartbeat—fast, uncertain. I’ve been there. I’ve guided others through it. For six years, I’ve helped students turn confusion into clarity, essays into expressions, assignments into something they could be proud of. With a BA in English and an AA in Screenwriting, I don’t just teach grammar—I teach the power of words, the thrill of finding your voice, and the magic of making meaning. Every student has a story. I’m here to help them tell it.
