Personal statements can be the most harrowing part of a graduate school application. Keeping track of your professional tone, paragraph structure, and proper grammar, all while keeping your narrative voice alive, can feel overwhelming. But with a little guidance, you can make your personal statement the strongest part of your application. This package is perfect for clients who want guidance on an in-progress application for grad school—whether it’s for a master’s, PhD, or other graduate level program. Send me a draft at least 24 hours before our call, and I’ll review it with comments and suggestions that we will tackle together during our 1 hour live session. We can target anything from grammar to structural revision to enhancing your personal and professional voice. Whether you want a second set of eyes to make sure you’re on the right track, or a professional to tear apart your first draft, you’ll come out of our session armed with the skills to improve your writing overall. After our session, I will review up to two subsequent drafts to ensure you’re on the right track to nailing your dream school! Timeline: Before our session: Book this package and send me a draft or outline 24 hours before our live session. I will review your draft before our session to make the most of our time. During our session: I will talk you through the balance between a professional and personal tone, the most effective structure for your essay, and even the smallest grammatical shifts to elevate your writing to the best that it can be. Together, we'll revamp your draft to highlight your voice, spotlight your achievements, and let your qualifications shine! After our session: After our session, you are welcome to send me up to two revised drafts—whether they are for the application we worked on together or for another graduate school application. I will review them and leave detailed, actionable suggestions to bring your essays to the next level. Let's make your graduate school dreams a reality!

Welcome! I received my Master's in Linguistics from the University of Oxford, my BA in English Language and Literature from the University of Texas at San Antonio, and I have coached dozens of students through the admissions process for bachelor's, master's, and doctoral programs. I made the jump from a mid-tier university to the number one university in the world, and with my extensive background in writing, research, and interpersonal communication, I can help you compose a compelling application tailored to your choice of university and program--whether it's based in the States or abroad. Having worked with students from all over the world, I can help you maximise your experiences to share the best of yourself to the admissions committee. My approach is tailored to each individual's goals, ensuring that you can make the most out of the application experience. I also offer support for resumes/CVs, finding the right program for you, and enhancing your academic and technical writing skills to aid you in reaching your full potential!
