Biography

An adjunct professor in the MFA in Writing Program at the University of San Francisco, I teach courses in fiction and autobiographical writing. I am also a secular instructor at the Hebrew Academy of San Francisco, a primary and secondary school dedicated to immigrant families from Russia and Ukraine. My fiction has appeared in a dozen journals, including Washington Square, The Missouri Review, and Farallon Review. In my most recent work of nonfiction, Peer Participation and Software: What Mozilla Has to Teach Government (The M.I.T. Press, 2010), I compare the production of open source software to the Obama administration's philosophy of participatory governance. At USF, I am also currently working toward an M.A. in Education, with an emphasis in Digital Media and Learning.
