Here's one of my stories

I've got 25 years of teaching experience, 14 years coaching storytellers, and a PhD in Education from NYU, where my research was about (you guessed it) storytelling. I’ve won multiple Moth GrandSLAMS, published a hit Audible Original memoir, toured worldwide with my stories, and I’m the former, founding Director of Education for The Moth. So I walk the walk.

There is no perfect way to tell a story: there’s YOUR way. I bring joy, caring and rigor to everything I work on. Let's do it together!

I help creative people tell better stories, so they can transform their work, art and lives.

As a storytelling coach, Micaela is both a sharp edge, able to cut into the heart of a story to find what makes it tick, and gentle encouragement personified. I'm not sure how she does both, but she does. I'd been walking around with this story for a long time--I needed Micaela's rare combination of skills to bring it out into the world in a form that I was proud to share.

"Micaela is the best audiobook narrator I've ever heard. She sings and jokes and tells you the hard things with enough humor that you know it's going to be okay... I could have lived in her world for so much longer!"
