My name is Dana Armstrong, and I am the faculty coordinator of the West Sacramento Writing Center. My education began at Modesto Junior College where I took advantage of several work- and study-abroad programs. I eventually transferred to U.C. Berkeley where I studied Comparative Literature. After graduating, I lived in Mexico for five months, studying Spanish and traveling around the country. I earned my graduate degree from U.C. Davis and have also taken Composition courses at San Francisco State University. I began my teaching career at Chabot College in Hayward and now have been teaching at Sacramento City College for nearly twenty years.

My name is Joseph Fry and I have been a tutor at the West Sacramento Writing Center since Spring 2023. I graduated from Sacramento City College in 2019 with an associate degree in graphic communication and an associate degree in English. At California State University, Sacramento, I received my bachelor's degree in English in 2022 and am currently finishing up my master's degree in English with a focus on creative writing. I am passionate about writing and helping students achieve their goals and find their voice in their education and leaving them with tools to continue replicating that success in their classrooms and beyond.
Hello everyone! My name is Josh and I am a second year student at SCC. I am majoring in philosophy with the future goal of one day becoming a lawyer. This is my first semester in the writing center, and I love being able to share my knowledge and help others get their ideas down in their own unique way. Research and persuasive essays are some of my strong suits and I am familiarized with many of the English courses at SCC as well. I look forward to meeting you all and helping in any ways that I can!

My name is William Torres. I am one of the new student tutors here at Sacramento City College at the West Sacramento Center. I have been a student at SCC for about 2+ years working towards a degree in Biology in hopes to transfer to UC Davis or Sacramento State to further my education. While here at SCC I have found a love for writing, this love has placed me in a position of wanting to help others who want to further their writing experience as I did for myself. I used to think writing was scary, but it ended up being very therapeutic for me. And I hope after your experience here with us at the writing center, it can be the same for you. Feel free to make an appointment with me or anyone else at the West Sacramento Writing Center and I hope to see you soon!

My name is Bronwen. I've worked in education since 2008, having originally trained as a teacher in the UK. I have worked in different international schools as both a teacher and as a librarian. I love supporting students in the Writing Center and I especially enjoy utilizing my training in research and library science to develop student understanding of research and citation. I am happy to help with small questions or more detailed support with essay structuring, paragraphing and research. I always advise students to visit the Writing Center as soon as they have an assignment– it is much easier than having to make lots of changes at the last minute. I look forward to seeing you soon.

Hello, my name is Tida! I am one of the writing center tutors! I have a B.S in Biological Sciences from University of the Pacific. My goal for the future is to become a professor. I want to pursue my Master's and PhD in Biology. Despite my education being heavily in STEM, I have a lot of experience in various levels of writing: from scientific research papers, to general academic papers, to personal writing projects on the side! I am very passionate about assisting students and helping them grow during their academic journey. Writing for me was always nerve-wracking. But, as I continued to write and practice this skill, I eventually started to take a liking to it. I look forward to meeting you!
