I’m an experienced English teacher and writing coach with seven years of classroom and one-on-one tutoring experience. I hold a B.A. from Amherst College and a J.D. from Boston University School of Law. I teach English at the high school level, including literature, academic writing, and creative writing. I’ve supported many students through the college admissions process, especially with essays and supplemental writing.

My approach is warm, encouraging, and tailored to each student’s needs. Whether we’re working on strengthening thesis statements, building literary analysis skills, or developing more fluent grammar and structure, I focus on helping students gain clarity and confidence. I especially love working with students who feel “stuck” or unsure of how to start. Together, we break writing down into manageable steps and build strong habits over time. I want you to be proud of your writing and of the pieces you compose.

I’ve taught in both classroom and individual settings, and I’m deeply familiar with a wide range of texts, assignments, and learning styles. Whether you're preparing for an AP English course, refining a college essay, or just want to feel more in control of your writing, I bring the experience, patience, and strategy to help you grow.

Essay Writing

Essay Writing

I've spent almost two decades working as a professional writer in the field of strategic communications. I also spent a decade working as a lawyer and have spent seven years teaching high school English. I'm well-equipped in sentence, paragraph, and essay structure, tone, voice, grammar, and syntax. I have experience writing and teaching analytical and creative writing, and I'm excited to share strategies, processes, and creativity with you.
Legal Writing

Legal Writing

As a former attorney, I spent 10 years working as a litigator covering all manner of civil litigation. I have experience in writing legal memoranda, appellate briefs, pleadings, and discovery requests. It's important to be organized, write with clarity and persuasion, and use precedent and sources that are relevant in jurisdiction, are good law, and are precise in their application to your issue.
SAT Writing

SAT Writing

I'm an expert in grammar, syntax, and sentence and paragraph structure. I work as a professional writer, editor, and classroom teacher. I'd love to help you study for the SAT, and also learn standard English grammar for your work across your educational journey.
