About Me

I'm a freelance writer, recent Yale grad, former concert pianist and word lover. For the past three years I've worked as a writing specialist at the Yale College Writing Center, where I edited papers on topics from Turkish prison reform to Faulkner to hemoglobin studies. This past summer, I traveled to 14 countries as part of the singing group Whim 'n Rhythm. On that trip, I taught a cappella, singing and choral workshops with students of all ages. It was incredible and hugely affirming -- music is truly a global language! My goal is to help my students become more comfortable writers, readers and critical thinkers while also providing a supportive -- and fun! -- learning environment. For me, tutoring isn't just about the assignment at hand, but about building a relationship and a strategy for tackling every essay, paragraph and sentence a student will write in the future.
