"I'm an award-winning, internationally-bestselling author who has published four critically-acclaimed novels with major U.S. publishing houses, and whose work has been translated into 21 languages to date. I have degrees from Amherst, Columbia and Johns Hopkins University, ten years in print, broadcast and magazine reporting, and over twenty years of teaching experience both in the U.S. and abroad. I have worked with students from across the geographic, economic and cultural spectrum, including in non-profit mentoring positions in underserved communities in New York, as a Teaching Fellow at Doshisha University in Japan, and as an adjunct assistant professor at Columbia University.
I currently specialize in helping private clients hone their truest voices, whether it's to craft immersive, vibrant college application essays that reflect their best selves to admissions officers, navigate challenging writing assignments once they've been accepted to school, explore and perfect independent creative writing projects, or produce impactful speeches and articles for the corporate world. I have helped numerous clients get into their top choice schools, including Brown, Cornell, Yale, MIT and many others. Just as importantly, though, I've helped them build a more intuitive understanding of how to craft natural, fluent pieces that engage and compel readers. Writing is what I love to do most–and I love sharing that joy with others." less...
