•PERSONAL NARRATIVE COACHING•

The Story of You

Helping you craft cohesive, persuasive, and memorable materials to support your academic and professional goals.

ABOUT

I’m a writer, author, and lawyer who can help you bring your story to light. I take the worry out, and together, we get it done. 

​

I love this work and bring to it a double skill set.


As a writer, I am skilled in the storytelling arts and have published books, literary essays, and other narrative nonfiction. I know what is interesting and how to get it on a page.

​

As a lawyer, I’m a ruthless questioner, have a knack for uncovering the telling details, and know a thing or two about persuasion.

​

This dual perspective creates memorable, original, and authentic essays that will give you an edge and allow you to stand out in the highly competitive world of admissions and employment.

​

There is no preparation needed on your end.

 

I work with students and adults in transition from all over the world by phone, Skype, or in person, if you're in the  Burlington, VT area.

 

I can review your draft or we can start fresh. My rates depend on your needs, so be in touch, and let's get this going.
