College Essay Advising

As a Ph.D. in Literature with expertise in writing, analysis, and communication, I offer a level of feedback grounded in years of academic training. My approach is thoughtful, personalized, and rigorous, but accessible.

While I bring high-level writing and teaching experience, my college advising practice is still growing. That’s why my rates are positioned to reflect expertise you can trust and pricing that respects your budget.

These rates are thoughtfully positioned between those of typical online writing coaches and elite national admissions firms, which often exceed $400 per hour. With my academic background, personalized process, and commitment to clarity, I aim to offer meaningful value to students and families during the college admissions process.

These 6-week courses provide personalized attention and expert guidance in a focused, seminar-style format.
