Hi, I’m Christina — a published writer, trauma-informed educator, and the creator of Write Now, an online writing workshop space. Our signature class, Restorying, is a self-paced course for people ready to tell the truth on the page—gently. It provides therapy-backed somatic tools to support your nervous system as you write.

With over a decade of experience teaching writing, editing memoirs, and designing curriculum for diverse clientele, I’ve seen what happens when someone dares to write their real story. It’s electric. It’s healing. And it can be scary.

That’s why I’ve spent years designing writing experiences that are brave but never brutal, especially for those who’ve lived through hard things.

🎓 My background includes:

• An MFA in Creative Writing and an M.Ed. in Education

• 15+ years teaching creative writing at universities, workshops, and nonprofits

• Published in places like The Sun, Teen Vogue, Pithead Chapel and elsewhere.

• Supported by prestigious writing organizations such as Hedgebrook, Bread Loaf, Tin House and more.

• Certification in trauma-informed pedagogy and somatic practices

• Deep editing experience with memoirists, first-time writers, and survivors

• Running beloved writing communities where people feel safe enough to go deep

• Personal experiences living with trauma (ACE 8 over here!) and trying to write about it on my own

I’m not just here to help you write—I’m here to help you stay with yourself while you do.

You don’t need to write it all at once. You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need a safe way in—and someone who knows the terrain. That’s what Restorying is for.

I'm so glad you're here.
