  • Identifying events you can turn into an essay

  • Finding the meaning in your story — and the payoff for the reader

  • Asking questions that will help you focus and sharpen your writing

About me

From designing jewelry to copywriting for a health science marketing agency to managing content strategy, I’ve pivoted a few times.

My editing skills are the connective thread that ties these experiences together.

I also enjoy turning personal experiences into compelling — and true — stories. My essays have been published in Modern Dog, Tennis View, and Alimentum.

Professionally, I’ve always been curious about how people communicate. My bachelor’s degree is in psychology (University of California), and I earned master’s degrees in human development and social policy (Northwestern) and sociology (UCLA).

Writing about yourself can be… a lot.

Before you go to your dream school, there are hoops to jump through. Including the personal statement. I remember sitting in front of the blinking cursor on the blank page. Need a coach to help you get things moving?

Your story is compelling. It’s time to tell it.
