My students have been admitted to Yale, the University of Pennsylvania (UPenn), Duke, Johns Hopkins, the University of North Carolina (UNC), Washington and Lee University, the University of Southern California (USC), University of California campuses, Purdue Engineering, and more. Whether you are applying to Ivy League schools, liberal arts colleges, or larger state schools, I can help you create the strongest applications possible.

I am currently pursuing a PhD in Systematic Theology at Notre Dame. In 2024, I earned my Master of Arts in Religion at Yale University. In May 2022, I received a B.A. in English from Washington and Lee University, where I won several university prizes for both critical and creative writing. In addition, I received the full-ride Johnson Scholarship at Washington and Lee and the national Beinecke Scholarship to fund my graduate studies. I have experience in research and critical or creative writing across university-level humanities subjects, so I can help hone your or your student's writing in a variety of subject areas.

I am happy to work asynchronously or meet online, and I guarantee high-quality work with quick turnaround times. Please consider me for any of your writing-related needs; I promise to treat your writing with as much care as I treat my own.

Great Teacher

Kathryn is a great tutor in many ways. First, her schedule is quite flexible. She tries her best to accommodate my schedule. This makes my life a lot easier. Moreover, she is very knowledgeable and professional. She can quickly identify the weaknesses in my paper and help me become a better writer. Finally, she is very efficient. She always helps me accomplish my learning goals for each session. I highly recommend her.

Kathryn is very experienced and knowledgeable

My son appreciates Katheryn’s patient and engaging approach to explaining the concepts. And he is very happy with his Theology assignment progress. He usually is not easy to concentrate however he could also benefit from focusing more to on conceptual understanding from her. Thank you so much. He is looking forward to see her again to learn more.

Kathryn is an Amazing Guide!

Kathryn is helping me with my research paper for my Into to Biblical Studies class (I am a freshman in college). She gives me many ideas that really help my understanding of the Bible. She now even has me excited about writing a paper, which never happens! She is very kind, she listens and explains very well, making sure I understand throughout her explaining. There isn't any negative things to say. Would recommend 100%. (looking forward to more sessions!)
