Briefly Written
Write less. Say more.
Words carry weight. Whether you’re arguing a case or crafting a story, clarity is the difference between being heard and being overlooked.

Brief Notes: Where Logic Meets Creativity
Every week, I share a short reflection on living with both halves of the brain switched on — the order and clarity of legal thinking paired with the imagination and curiosity of creative writing. Think of it as a gentle nudge toward balance: logic and imagination working side by side.

From a Former Student -
“Professor F is one of the most put-together, helpful, and knowledgeable Professors I have ever encountered in academia. Her approach is no-nonsense, and really challenged us as students, all while providing an encouraging undertone in every single class and conference. Her approach to legal writing really makes me feel confident that while it will continue to be difficult, any type of legal writing is within reach if I break it down.”
-
From a Former Student -
“Professor F was the anchor of 1L. Excellent instruction on the writing assignments, excellent feedback in the conferences, and excellent instruction in class. She also put a lot of emphasis on us becoming attorneys and geared a lot of her instruction towards that end which was really effective and beneficial. Easily one of the best professors of the whole year.”
