Graduate Essay Editing (Per Application)
Editing and storytelling support for graduate and professional school applicants in business, policy, finance, the arts and academic programs. By the time you apply to graduate school, you already have a story. My job is to help you tell it so your next step feels inevitable. We'll work on your personal statement or statement of purpose through up to 3 rounds, plus up to 3 supplemental essays with 2 rounds each. I'll help you decide what to emphasize, cut what doesn't serve your story, and connect your past experience clearly to your future goals. Additional supplemental essays can be added separately. This package covers essay editing only. It does not include school selection, recommender strategy or interview coaching.
What's included
- A final personal statement or statement of purpose, refined through up to 3 rounds
- Up to 3 final supplemental essays, each refined through 2 rounds
- A clear narrative connecting your experience to your goals for the program

Harvard grad editing essays for Stanford, Oxford, Rhodes & Schwarzman
I help students figure out who they are on paper, then show it with confidence. For high school students, that can start as early as ninth grade. We map out courses, activities and summers around what genuinely excites them so that by senior year their application reflects a story they've actually lived. For students closer to deadlines, I move quickly to find the thread that ties their experiences together and turn it into a focused, compelling application. Along the way, I encourage students to reach past what they think they're capable of, whether that's a bolder project, a harder class or an essay that takes a real risk. I also edit essays for graduate school and scholarship applicants, including successful candidates for Harvard, Stanford, Princeton, Oxford, Rhodes and Schwarzman. Expect honest feedback, a high bar and a partner who is genuinely invested in your growth.
