As a writer of more than 200 academic essays, short stories, and longform unpublished works, I remember how intimidated I was starting out. My goal, for students, is to give them the support I didn't have back when I was in their shoes. If I can be that uplifting and encouraging voice for someone, then I've succeeded in my mission.

I've worked one-on-one with individual students, providing detailed notes and constructive feedback on first drafts; including (but not limited to) short stories, academic essays, longform manuscripts, and screenplays. I can provide thorough proofreading, suggested structural revisions, and clarity of language and description in your prose and writing style. I hold a BA in English Literature from Cleveland State University with a Minor in International Film, and my main areas of expertise are English Literary Analysis and Creative Writing.

My approach is simple: rather than penalizing students for not immediately mastering a subject right out of the gate, I instead reward COMPLETION of work and the application of EFFORT while still providing detailed and constructive criticism. I've found this allows students to focus on areas for improvement and growth, without feeling scared of punishment for making trial-and-error mistakes. After all, people gained learned lessons from mistakes, so it's important to allow room for them. As long as a student is actually putting in the effort, I will point your energy in the right direction for you.
