"Writing is one of the most enjoyable, fulfilling things in the world to do, if you have the support and the skills to write something you're proud of - and it's one of the most frustrating things in the world to do if you don't. Working on a college application, supplemental essay, personal statement, English paper, cover letter, thesis, article, or just writing for fun? Let me support your work and help you hone your writing, so that you can enjoy creating something that you're proud of!

I'm a freelance journalist with over 200 bylines; outlets I've been published in include MIT News, Boston Globe Media's Boston.com, Khoury News, and the business-to-business tech site searchNetworking. I hold a BA in Journalism from Northeastern University, where I graduated magna cum laude and edited multiple magazines and journals.

I prefer to tutor online and one-on-one, so that I can give personal feedback and coaching that works with both of our schedules. I can help at any stage of the writing process, from brainstorming, outlining, and organizing, to writing, revising, editing, and proofreading. I'm a strong believer in the 70% rule: feedback that's more than 70% negative is too discouraging to be helpful, and feedback that's more than 70% positive is a waste of my students' time. My coaching highlights strengths in your writing that you can lean into, and provides targeted constructive criticism to help you improve where your work is weaker." less...
