I am Sepideh, a writer and editor whose work has appeared in Bon Appetit, Wine & Spirits, Westways, and a few other places. Most recently, I edited a cookbook for GoodBite.com, which was published by Wiley in September 2011 (you can order it on Amazon now). I have a BA in creative writing from the University of Southern California and I’ll write a short story collection someday soon to justify that degree, I promise.
As of September 2010, I’m a Social Welfare graduate student at UCLA, expecting my MSW in June 2012. I hope to become a licensed clinical social worker by 2015. My first-year internship was in bereavement support, providing individual counseling and co-facilitating grief support groups for clients ages 5 to 85. My second-year internship is at a college counseling center, providing short-term psychotherapy to undergraduate and graduate students. I’ve also worked with women and children that have experienced domestic violence.
I’m not on Facebook, Twitter, or any other social networking sites, but if you’d like to get in touch with me, I’d love to hear from you. Email me: sepideh AT sepidehsaremi DOT com.
