The College Essay Expert

So, after (gladly) helping my daughter’s friends with their college app essays, I’ve realized it’s something I love doing!  Using my twenty years experience as a journalist/editor helping others craft their essays gives me a unique perspective.

Okay, yeah, here’s the elevator pitch:

SAT tutors and college advisors are great at what they do – tutoring for tests and helping your child decide where to apply. But when it comes to the all-important essay, it’s time to call in a true writing specialist. As an  editor with over twenty years’ experience helping writers produce attention-grabbing short-form essays (contributing editor at Parade Magazine, Editor in Chief of Fitness, Executive Editor of McCalls and Features Director of Self) and writer ( The New York Times, New York Magazine, More Magazine, Harper’s Bazaar, InStyle, Allure,  Redbook, More, Ladies Home Journal) I know what works.  I will help your child brainstorm, write, and edit the essays that will give their application the winning edge.
