ADHD

While earning my master's degrees in psychology and social work, I have worked as a Learning Specialist and Learning Skills Advisor in university offices of disability and support services. In this role, I work one-on-one with college students with learning disabilities, including ADHD. I have worked as a Learning Skills Advisor for three years.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)

I hold two master’s degrees, one in Psychological Sciences and one in Social Work, giving me a strong foundation in understanding developmental, behavioral, and social-emotional needs. My background allows me to approach ASD-related learning with empathy, evidence-informed knowledge, and an individualized perspective.

Creative Writing

I minored in Creative Writing during my undergraduate studies, completing coursework in fiction, poetry, and short story writing. I earned a 4.0 GPA across my Creative Writing courses, demonstrating strong skills in written expression, storytelling, and literary analysis. I can help students develop their creative voice, strengthen their writing structure and style, and revise their work while maintaining their unique perspective. I enjoy working with writers at different skill levels and helping them build confidence in their creative writing abilities.

Essay Writing

I have spent many years in higher education, completing undergraduate and graduate degrees that required extensive academic writing across a variety of subjects. Through my own academic experience, I have written numerous essays, research papers, literature reviews, and other college-level assignments. I understand what instructors typically look for in a strong essay, including clear organization, a focused thesis, strong evidence, and polished writing. I can help students develop their ideas, strengthen their arguments, improve structure and clarity, and become more confident in their academic writing.

Fiction Writing

I minored in Creative Writing during my undergraduate studies and completed dedicated coursework in fiction and short story writing. My academic experience gave me a strong foundation in character development, plot structure, dialogue, setting, and narrative voice. I can help writers develop story ideas, strengthen their characters and plots, and revise their work while preserving their individual creative voice.

Personal Statements

I have extensive personal experience writing and revising personal statements for both undergraduate and graduate school applications. I understand how to communicate personal experiences, goals, and strengths in a way that feels authentic while still making an application stand out. I can help students develop their ideas, improve clarity and structure, and create a personal statement that reflects their unique voice and story.

Proofreading

I have a minor in Creative Writing and professional experience as an Editorial Assistant via Springer Publishing, where I gained hands-on experience with manuscript review and the publication process. I also have a published research article, giving me firsthand experience with scholarly writing and publication standards. I bring both a writer’s perspective and an editor’s attention to detail to every proofreading project.
