In 2015, I was one of several Northwestern University MFA graduates to serve on a panel about navigating the freelance writing space, as part of the Northwestern Summer Writers Conference. (May 30, 2015.)

In 2013, I moderated a panel for my alma mater Northwestern University's Career Day, titled "Networking Across the City, Across Genres." Panelists included Krista Franklin, Mare Swallow, and David Welch and we spent a lively hour discussing:  "Networking" as a dirty word, working with creative artists of other disciplines, Chicago’s neighborhood divisions, and more. (May 4, 2013).

I caught up with Chicago Tribune's Amy Guth at this annual literary party in 2009, and we talked about the Chicago literary community, literary citizenship, and how to foster it. (Watch on Vimeo via the ChicagoNow blog, August 2009.)
