About Jon
I have taught writing at the University of Pennsylvania for nearly a decade. My background is in working with unconventional leaders, writers held back by anxiety and perfectionism, and neurodivergent writers.
What I most love about teaching and coaching is working very closely with people one-on-one and creating the kind of safety and structure that makes it possible to make a lot of progress very quickly.
I'm always happy when the people I work with write better and more effectively, but what makes me even happier is seeing students and clients overcome the fear, dread, and negativity that used to haunt them everytime they sat down to write, and instead write with confidnce and ease.
I live in Philadelphia with my husband, our four year old, and an ever-growing herb garden.
