Carly Sorenson
Instructor and Registration Associate
Carly took Writopia Lab workshops as a child for many years before joining the organization full-time as a Registration Associate and, later, Registration Coordinator. Today, she works part-time as an instructor and mentor for Writopia Lab. She was born and raised in Queens, New York and learned from a young age to speak, write, and read Spanish, thanks to a dual language program at her local public school. She graduated summa cum laude with Bachelor's Degrees in Creative Writing and Spanish from SUNY Purchase College. In 2020, she received the Ginny Wray Senior Prize in Fiction. Her writing has been published by the Gandy Dancer, Horseheads Magazine, and Montez Press Radio. Her fiber art has been displayed by the RIVAA gallery and AHU.
