Tsh Oxenreider

Tsh Oxenreider is the upperclassmen English guide and the Leadership guide for all of high school. She’s a graduate of the University of Texas at Austin and is currently studying for her MFA in creative writing at the University of St. Thomas. She’s also the author of several books, a podcaster, and publishes a weekly newsletter about the sacramental search for the transcendentals in the world. Every summer she leads a group pilgrimage to places like Italy, Ireland, and England, but she’s most happy tending to her family’s backyard chickens in Georgetown. Most importantly, she’s the mom of three students at the Studio and loves her God-ordained vocation to raise them well.

“Tsh shows it’s possible to combine a love for adventure and travel with a love for family and home.” – Gretchen Rubin, NYT bestselling author of The Happiness Project
“Tsh is a remarkable example of how to balance the rooted stability of family with the winged adventure of wanderlust.” – Chris Guillebeau, NYT bestseller of The $100 Start-Up
“I’ve always found Tsh’s voice to be warm, practical, and inspiring.” – Shauna Niequist, NYT bestselling author of Present Over Perfect

How students describe Mrs. Oxenreider:

Very genuine and sweet
Helps us see why writing is important
Engaging, merciful and chill
Genuinely care about us wanting to learn to write well instead of just trying to teach us
Space out our work so well that even though it’s a lot, it’s never overwhelming
Help us be creative (which I needed when forming this sentence). And you bring a fresh perspective!

Formal Education:

Bachelor of Arts, University of Texas, English Literature and Cultural Anthropology
