Experience

I am an experienced writer and editor who has worked one-one-one with writers at all skill levels to develop essays and reported pieces for publication. I have been an editor at numerous national magazines and websites and also help people write books to be published by major publishing houses. My nieces and nephews are deep in the college application process and I'm discovering that I have a knack for helping them shape authentic, compelling essays.
