Harvard grad editing essays for Stanford, Oxford, Rhodes & Schwarzman

A strong graduate application connects where you've been to where you're going, clearly and convincingly. Helping applicants make that connection is what I do best. I've edited essays for successful applicants to graduate programs at Harvard, Stanford, Princeton, Oxford, LSE, Carnegie Mellon and WashU Olin, as well as to two of the most competitive scholarships in the world, the Rhodes and Schwarzman. The applicants I've worked with came from very different fields, from finance to fine arts to video game design, but each needed the same thing: a clear story connecting their past experience to their future goals. My own career has given me a practical sense of how professional experience reads on the page. Since graduating from Harvard, where I was chosen as the Harvard Orator to deliver the graduating speech at Commencement, I've worked in strategy, product and account management and co-founded two startups. I know how to take a resume full of projects and responsibilities and find the narrative underneath it. I'll help you decide what to emphasize, cut what doesn't serve your story, and sharpen every draft until your essays sound confident, specific and unmistakably like you.
