Hi.

I'm so glad you're here!

I’m Amy (she/her). I’m a poet, school psychologist, weirdo, and educator from Pittsburgh. Building and nurturing creative community is one of my deepest passions and I want to do it forever and ever.

​

I offer creative consultation, beginner's poetry classes, poetry workshops, and poetry retreats! 

​

My approach to poetry is one that’s steeped in curiosity and appreciation. I don’t have fancy writing degrees but I have a juicy all-encompassing love for learning that I enjoy sharing with others.

​

I strive to present and foster a non-hierarchical spirit in my workshop settings. I am not an expert in craft, rather a human full of wonder and awe, engaging in that wonder in awe with all of you. My goal is to hold space for all of us to learn together.

​

My academic background is in educational psychology and neuropsychology. I have extensive knowledge and training in social emotional learning, academic intervention, classroom differentiation, neurodivergence + learning disabilities, and trauma informed care.

​

Things I love: gardening, french fries, musical theater, tea, eccentric bathroom decor, dogs, hiking, thrifting.
