I’m Andrea—a writer, editor and educator based in San Francisco’s East Bay.

I’m an Editor for Brevity Blog—the place to discuss issues related to the writing of literary nonfiction. I’m Co-Founder of Diablo Writers’ Workshop where I taught and supported a vibrant writing community for eight, great years. With an essay collection in the works, now I’m devoting more time to my own writing. I teach cnf, essay and submitting to lit mags on a variety of platforms, provide editorial services working with writers one-on-one, and offer two, free Meet Ups. That’s me in a paragraph—dig into the website for more details.

Things I Love:

• Personal essays! Which I write about on my Substack: Everything Essay!

• Swimming. Hiking. Baking Bread. My Cat. East Bay hills. Sunflowers.
