About Addison


Bio

Welcome! I'm earning my MFA in Creative Writing at Columbia University. I graduated summa cum laude from the University of San Francisco, and have spent nearly a decade honing my writing and analytical skills. The consumption, contemplation, and creation of excellent writing is as necessary to me as blinking and breathing. Lucky for you, I also love to edit, teach, and make strong writing stronger! I have a wide knowledge of English literature, as well as considerable understanding of film,...

Welcome! I'm earning my MFA in Creative Writing at Columbia University. I graduated summa cum laude from the University of San Francisco, and have spent nearly a decade honing my writing and analytical skills. The consumption, contemplation, and creation of excellent writing is as necessary to me as blinking and breathing. Lucky for you, I also love to edit, teach, and make strong writing stronger! I have a wide knowledge of English literature, as well as considerable understanding of film, music, and visual art. I'm a syntax/grammar freak with an extensive vocabulary, and I'd love to help you with your writing assignments, college applications, or personal writing projects.

This semester, I taught a community seminar on the poet Wallace Stevens at Columbia University. I also traveled around Westchester County, NY, with the Poet Laureate thereof, teaching ecopoetry to high school students in a variety of schools.

I'm no stranger to teaching and I'm certainly no stranger to the written word. Please let me know what you need help with, and hopefully we can make your writing sing!
