Craft essays that are entirely you

There’s no way around it – writing a college essay is hard. You need to hook your reader, highlight what matters about you, stand out, and show colleges why you should be there. Easy, right?

Here’s the thing. You already have these stories. And we can find them, using simple brainstorming exercises, solid outlines, messy drafts, and a revision process that can be more fun than you’d expect.

Why work with me?

As a novelist and journalist, I know all about the writing process. How challenging it is to get started. How awful a draft can seem when you’re in the middle of it. How uncertain you can feel at the end, wondering whether you should share your work with the world or send it to the scrap pile.

All of those feelings are normal. I’ll guide you through fail-proof writing strategies so you can craft essays that are fully you, completely unforgettable, and catch the attention of colleges you care about.
