"Nice to meet you! My name is Ashley, and I'm from sunny California. I graduated from UCLA with degrees in English and Education Studies. I am pursuing my English masters at UCI and concurrently receiving my teaching credential for secondary education.

I have 4+ years of editorial experience in the publishing industry as a writer, copy editor, and marketer. My personal publications include research articles, news articles, opinion columns, fashion blogs, and creative nonfiction.

I also have 5+ years of instructional experience teaching ESL and English literature to K - adult students. I have helped counsel undergraduate and graduate applicants from the U.S. and abroad. My students pursue various fields such as film, engineering, art, and business administration. I have met (in-person and online) students from Japan, Korea, China, Singapore, and I can't wait to meet you—wherever you are!

These are my specialties:

- Essay and resume editing for students applying to undergraduate and graduate programs

- Editing writing assignments for current classes (e.g., AP Lang/Lit, college lit)

- Editing research writing for undergraduate and graduate students (e.g., honors thesis, research project, final paper)

- Editing cover letters, emails, and portfolios for job applicants

My editing and writing lessons will be self-contained, meaning we will complete the comprehensive editing process (grammar, vocabulary, structure) or writing process (brainstorm, thesis statement, outline) in a single lesson. You are encouraged to book additional lessons if you'd like multiple rounds of edits.

From trivial grammar mistakes to creative brainstorming to structural clarity, I've got all the resources and expertise to help you!" less...
