I am a former staff writer and columnist for the Los Angeles Times with more than 20 years experience. I've been a foreign correspondent, staff reporter and editor for the Houston Chronicle and United Press International based in Mexico City, Madrid, San Juan, P.R., Washington, and New York. I have a B.A. from the University of California at Santa Cruz and a master's degree from Columbia University in New York. Most recently I've worked with high school students hoping to put their best writing forward for college admissions officers. I'm the mother of two daughters, both of whom were admitted to top-ranked universities and colleges.
