I am an author, blogger, nurse, journalist, grandfather and activist for peace, Earth and Palestinian rights with Jewish Voice for Peace in the SF Bay Area. I know how to listen and what questions to ask to create compelling stories.

I have written two published books on health, contributed to three others, and have done dozens of articles and blogs for health-related sites.  I also write essays and poetry about political, economic and spiritual questions on Medium.com and other sites.

I was a writing tutor at City College of San Francisco from 2016–2019, working with students aged 18–40 at all levels of writing and English-language proficiency. I specialize in helping young writers develop their ideas and identify what they really want to say. I will make you do most of the work but the guidance I do give will likely be helpful.
