I am a total nerd about 3 things: Star-Trek, kindness, and helping people write amazing stories. I graduated with honors from the College of Wooster. Voted Most Likely to Change the World in high school, I gave a TEDx Talk in college which was featured in the Huffington Post and has over a quarter MILLION views on YouTube. I’ve given two graduation speeches and have spoken in front of 1,000+ people. At thirteen I began traveling internationally to writing workshops, performing poetry and coaching young writers at events like Poetry Out Loud in D.C. and Brave New Voices in California. Eventually, I ended up in Ghana studying playwriting under Prof. Samuel Benagr at the University of Ghana.

Crafting an important college essay? No worries. I provide exercises that’ll create an essay as unique as you are. Plus, these tools will help you continue writing great essays even after we're done working together.

Writing a speech or presenting in front of a crowd? No sweat. I’ve given two graduation speeches and have spoken in front of 1,000+ people. If you have a story to tell but don’t quite know how – I’ll help you find the perfect words. You’ll learn what to do with your hands, how to quell nervousness and memorize quickly, create a fun crowd and even what to do when you mess up so no one knows. Yes, you’ll mess up, we all do.

When you leave our session, you'll be prepared and motivated (hopefully feeling all tingly inside) – that’s my goal when we work together: high-quality results from a low-stress environment. I reply quickly and am always happy to answer your questions. I believe in you (but actually) so let’s get it done!
