Meet your writing coach…


I’M AN EDUCATOR BY TRADE AND WRITER BY CHOICE. AFTER TEACHING HIGH SCHOOL HISTORY FOR A FEW YEARS, I FOUND THAT I WAS CONSISTENTLY DRAWN TO WRITING—IN AND OUT OF THE CLASSROOM. I STARTED WRITING ON WEEKENDS AND IN STOLEN MOMENTS WHILE ALSO GETTING ON STAGE AS A STANDUP COMEDIAN.

IN 2017 I LEFT THE CLASSROOM TO MOVE TO NEW YORK CITY AND PURSUE WRITING AND COMEDY FULL-TIME. JUST A YEAR LATER, I PUBLISHED MY FIRST MEMOIR “I’LL BE OK, IT’S JUST A HOLE IN MY HEAD” AND BEGAN TEACHING WRITING CLASSES IN BROOKLYN.

AFTER PUBLISHING, WHAT STRUCK ME WAS JUST HOW MANY OTHER PEOPLE WANTED TO WRITE AND PUBLISH THEIR OWN BOOKS. I SPENT HOURS IN COFFEE SHOPS WITH FELLOW WRITERS, SHARING MY EXPERIENCES AS A NEW AUTHOR. I SIMPLY LOVED TALKING SHOP WITH WRITERS!

SO AFTER YEARS OF DELIBERATING, I FINALLY MADE THE LEAP TO START MY OWN BUSINESS…AND WRITING WITH MIMI WAS BORN!

I NOW OFFER UNIQUE AND TAILORED WRITING COURSES FOR BEGINNERS, INTERMEDIATE, AND ADVANCED WRITERS IN A VARIETY OF GENRES! HOW F’N COOL IS THAT?!

Client Testimonials

Mimi effectively combines her multiple and unique talents (teaching, writing, comedy, survivor of life’s curveballs) to help you gather incomplete ramblings and turn them into cohesive, compelling stories. She uses surgical precision to extract the stories you didn’t even know you had inside of you- all without the actual pain and unsightly scarring of surgery. Best of all, she subtly reminds you that being a writer is a gift and can be enjoyable and rewarding.

Mimi knows how to create a comfortable and fun space for you to pursue your writing goals. She is not only skilled at taking you through the editing process but cheers you on the entire time with her positive energy and encouraging words. I highly recommend you add her to your creative arsenal for your next writing project!

I am a Brazilian journalist living in NY. As a communications professional one of the biggest challenges I faced when I moved to the US was the language barrier. All of a sudden what was natural for me—writing emails, letters, articles—became an impossible task. I became very aware of my grammar limitations and my fear of rejection stopped me from trying. For many years I avoided working in anything that would rely on my writing and would always find someone to do the job for me. As a very creative mind, I felt choked. There were so many ideas flowing through my mind and I just couldn’t write them down. That’s when I found Mimi and started weekly writing classes. I cannot thank Mimi enough for helping me to find my voice again. Today I write a blog, manage 3 social media channels, and am in the process of writing 2 books. Writing is no longer a challenge for me, but an exciting way to express myself and share my stories.
