Hello parents and students,  

Welcome to college essay editing. 

With decades of experience as a writer and editor, I know how to tell a good story. Using that knowledge, I provide one-on-one, personalized college essay editing to high school students around the country, helping them write compelling essays that enhance their applications.  

I rely on the interviewing techniques I have used in my work as a journalist to discover the ideas, experiences and values that students want to share with colleges and universities. I brainstorm with students to help them choose meaningful topics for their personal statements and supplemental essays.  

As I guide students through the writing process, I help them structure their essays to tell a great story while ensuring their unique voice shines through. I am always editing for grammar, spelling, usage and typos, too. 

I have guided my two children through the college application process and know the stress that families may be feeling. Along with helping students write engaging essays, I am also an impartial observer of students’ thoughts and ideas, providing a safe and encouraging place for them to write about themselves. I love getting to know students and helping them tell their stories in a thoughtful, illuminating and captivating way. 

My goal is to help students craft essays that feel like them, that sound like them and that they are proud to submit.
