Workshops and Seminars




As an author with varied areas of expertise, I would love to visit your school or business! For the students of all grade levels, I teach creative writing workshops, picture book making, how to start blogging, and how to self-publish their work.  I also provide health, fitness, and wellness seminars for grades 6-12 and your staff. Each course is designed to fit the needs of each group.



Wellness Seminar: The Science of Nutrition

The Science of Nutrition is a workshop originally designed as a 6-week high school course for Workshop Houston's Summer Leadership Institute 2012. However, the content of this course can be customized for any age group, health/nutrition topic, and desired program length.
Session topics include, but are not limited to:
*Basic Nutrition using ChooseMyPlate.gov guidelines
