Hi! My name is Sarah, and I hold my bachelor's in English from UCLA and a master’s degree in Rhetoric and Writing from Michigan State University. Additionally, I taught college writing for two years and conversational English abroad for a year. I have also worked in writing center spaces as a tutor for over five years. I greatly enjoy working with writers and helping them move towards their goals, whether they be academic or personal.

I believe that writing is highly individualized process that requires support and guidance in order to grow. As a writing instructor and tutor, I focus on helping improve clarity and cohesion in the expression of your ideas in order for your writing to effectively communicate the message you are relaying to your audience. I view writing as highly collaborative and strive for our sessions together to be generative so that you are growing independently as a writer. I look forward to working with you!
