Have you ever been in a newspaper story?
In last Sunday's Wenatchee World newspaper, there was an article about the high school College Mentor Program.
The article featured me and used this photo! Last June, I took three students I previously mentored for a hike on Icicle Gorge trail.
Since 2006, I have been a volunteer college mentor, helping first generation, low income students write essays for college and scholarship applications. It thrills me to send kids to college.
I teach students writing and organizational skills, and the importance of doing work before the deadline.

Good for you. For eight years, I wrote a column in Wenatchee Business Journal. The deadline came up fast!
Yes. I was interviewed by Esquire Magazine and the interview appeared in the Nov. 2017 issue. Not a newspaper, but interviewed nonetheless.
