I recently earned my MFA in Creative Writing from Emerson College, where I taught in the EmersonWRITES program, had a 3.97 GPA, and was nominated for The President's Award, across all graduated departments, "for the highest level of academic achievement at Emerson. I earned my BA from Middlebury College in English and American Literature, where I was on the Dean's List. As a writer and editor, I specialize in personal essay, profiles, art criticism, and expository academic work. With tutoring, I'm an experienced private tutor, eager and qualified to help in two ways: 1. Giving helpful feedback related to all things form and craft, syntax, structure, tone and 2. Creating a warm and open environment, an atmosphere where self-expression, perceptiveness, and creative gusto take priority. I'm confident in my ability to do both.
