The Essay That Matters Most
Your college essay is one of the only places in the application where admissions officers hear your voice, and for many students, it's the most significant piece of writing they'll produce in their teenage years. That can feel like a lot of pressure. I've spent over 15 years teaching writing at the high school and college level (including at NYU, UGA, and UTK), and I know how to help students move past the blank page and generic "what I learned" essay into something honest, specific, and memorable. Whether you're stuck on a topic or polishing a final draft, I'll work with you one-on-one to make sure your essay sounds like you at your best.
