Hi! I am a Carnegie Mellon University graduate with a degree in Business and Decision Science, specializing in reading comprehension, critical writing, and college essay coaching. My approach is rooted in helping students find their authentic voice, structure their ideas logically, and communicate with clarity and impact. Drawing on my academic background, I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all framework. Instead, I tailor every session to each student's unique learning style, strengths, and personal goals, turning what often feels like an overwhelming process into a manageable and rewarding one.

My instructional background spans both large classroom settings and intensive, one-on-one mentorship. As a Teaching Assistant for multiple university-level courses, I led group discussions, broke down complex concepts, and guided students through rigorous writing and analytical assignments. Alongside my classroom work, I have extensive experience as a 1:1 college essay editor for students from diverse educational backgrounds and skill levels. From helping a high school senior brainstorm their very first outline to refining a final personal statement for a target university, I focus on helping writers transform raw ideas into compelling, memorable narratives.

Whether you are looking for strategic feedback on a college application essay, targeted support with reading comprehension, or guidance on refining your overall writing style, my goal is to build your confidence and sharpen your analytical thinking. I take pride in providing constructive, personalized feedback that empowers students to take ownership of their writing and achieve their academic goals. Feel free to reach out so we can discuss how to best support your learning journey!

Essay Writing

Essay Writing

Drawing on years of heavy exposure to university level academic writing and my experience as a Carnegie Mellon Teaching Assistant, I teach students how to construct rigorous, well reasoned essays. I guide writers through every stage of the process, from analyzing complex prompts and building airtight outlines to refining thesis statements and vocabulary. My approach focuses on giving students the tools and structural frameworks they need to write with clarity, precision, and confidence across any academic subject.
Personal Statements

Personal Statements

As a Carnegie Mellon University graduate, I have spent years editing successful personal statements through word of mouth for students of all backgrounds. My individualized coaching has helped applicants earn admission to top institutions including Stanford, Wharton, and Carnegie Mellon. I work one on one with students to brainstorm unique angles, structure their personal narratives logically, and polish final drafts that make a lasting impression on admissions committees.
