Bio

Screenwriter. Author. Forensics instructor. Enough about me. This is about you. And I do care.

Writing is finding, developing and sharing your voice. Bold, atypical, justified choices win. Our sessions are like coffee talk: loose and flexible to understand individual needs yet highly effective. One student was failing a class. By semester's end, she improved three letter grades + a full-ride scholarship. Another: accepted into Yale. Georgia Tech. Stanford. Texas. Ohio State. BYU. Tisch....

Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor

Mike has been such a great help to my son with his college essays! He’s incredibly patient and really knows how to guide a student who feels stuck and unsure of what to write. Somehow, he’s able to turn that into a productive session full of ideas and energy. We’re so thankful for all his support!

Down-to-earth, Inspiring, and Strategic Writing Coach!

Mike is an excellent communicator and writing coach! I enjoyed the down-to-earth conversation with him to help me unravel my writer's block and build a process that conveys the message from the heart. The weaving of the tapestry of emotions, research, culture, and history in book writing will be a challenging one, and yet brilliantly persuasive and plausible.

Great Writer!

He was very patient with me gathering and using my rough draft to perfectly craft an essay that both got the message across but was very clear and confident.

Jaidyn, 2 lessons with Mike

Perfect!

My son has met with Mike several times to help him structure and refine several essays as a senior in high school and freshman in college. He gives the highest praise to Mike for setting up a creative, productive environment, and concentrating a lot of work into a 60 minute session. He is knowledgeable, skilled, and good natured. Highly recommend!
