Abhainn

Abhainn (ah-VEEN) (she/they) is a Creative Writing major with a minor in Outdoor Studies. Beyond the WORD Studio, they teach creative writing workshops focusing on relational connections between the writer and their surrounding environment (especially nature). This relational philosophy is woven through Abhainn’s own writings and influences their tutoring style immensely. Their main focus as a tutor is to nurture in students a self-confidence in their own, unique voices and to strengthen their ability to navigate the complexities of technical and academic communication tactfully. When they are not in the Studio, Abhainn can most likely be found hugging a tree, crashing on a ski slope… or on a bike or napping.
