Who you are

  • Writers, poets, performers, art practitioners of all kinds

    who wish to deepen or renew your writing and art-making, need time and support to explore your creative purpose, test new approaches, and get at the full potential of your project.

  • Activists, independent researchers, scholars

    who want to create new contexts for the urgency of your research, bring in other resources, materials, and take on ways of working informed by creative practices.

  • Curators, producers, organizers

    looking for collaborative, multilingual, and/or creative modes of working and shaping a public project.

At a time of rapid change and deep uncertainty, many writers and artists find their practice, focus, or direction shifting. The coaching and mentoring I offer, supports creative practitioners in clarifying, renewing or deepening both their skills and sense of purpose. Our work together provides space to reflect and sustain creative practices in a way that is grounded, responsive, and connected to the present climate.

Testimonials

  • A powerful and attuned listener, an agent of provocation, a supporter

    Caroline was a powerful and attuned listener, an agent of provocation, a supporter, an enthusiastic creative and intellectual interlocutor, an artist and writer who extended my horizons, enabled risk-taking. My time working with her mentorship was invaluable.

    — Robin T-MG, poet and artist, Art Practice Mentoring 2026

  • As a result of our coaching, I have started my book project.

    It has moved from being in my head to being crafted.

    — Sebastian R., coach and social entrepeneur. Creative Coaching 2024-25

  • Every facet of what I hoped to accomplish

    I had a much narrower view of what I had hoped to accomplish with the project. Caroline’s suggestions allowed me to fully realize every facet of what I hoped to accomplish.

    — Andrew Davie, published writer, Art Practice Mentoring 2025

  • Generous, open minded and welcoming

    Caroline is a wonderful facilitator, very generous, open minded and welcoming. She really encourages people to be experimental and trustful.

    — Collaborative writing participant, 2022

  • A space for my own imagination to flourish and for my artistic practice to evolve in exciting new ways.

    Caroline has helped me to broaden the scope of my project, offering insights, stimulation and encouragement, at the same time creating a space for my own imagination to flourish and for my artistic practice to evolve in exciting new ways. I am ever grateful for her warmth and for her guidance.

    — Jaclyn P, poet & scholar. Art Practice Mentoring 2022

  • Our conversations have emboldened my practice and encouraged me to think beyond what I once believed possible.

    — Beata Daly (Piekarska), painter and site-specific artist, Art Practice Mentoring 2025

  • I was able to connect and produce short bilingual miniature poems, the foundation for a 45-minute performance work.

    Working closely with Caroline and being exposed to her affinity for historical literature prompted me to reach beyond the timeline of my recent ancestors, and out to the deeper past of my most direct cultural heritage, which is currently known as Korean. I was able to connect and produce short bilingual miniature poems, the foundation for a 45-minute performance work.

    — Una Lee, composer and performer, 2024

  • An expansive and exciting process

    Working with Caroline is an expansive and exciting process; things move fast, connect, flicker, catch, and instill. A lot happens in a brief time, drawing embers through work that remains long after the screen closes.

    — Collaborative writing participant, 2022

  • Life-changing, art-practice-changing in the most affirmative and authentic of ways

    Working with Caroline is life-changing, art-practice-changing in the most affirmative and authentic and complex of ways. Caroline has an unusual gift for knowing what to say – and what not say, knowing how to say key words, or make suggestions, that allowed me to explore, without being heavy-handed, and yet with the utmost subtlety and precision.

    — Diana T. poet and multidisciplinary artist, Art Practice Mentoring, 2023
