Experience
As a Writing Counsellor at Columbia University, I helped students achieve success with every aspect of the writing process, from tasks as diverse as writing personal statements to research papers. Much of this work focused on foreign students who are working in English as their second or third language. For 13 years I've developed a professional reputation with nationally published magazines and web platforms, and currently work as an editor and travel writer for TripAdvisor and Oyster.com in New York City. I've also spent time tutoring refugees in English writing, conversation, and comprehension. I'm most proud with I can see the spark in a student's eye—the one where suddenly, what they are trying to say and what they are actually saying has snapped into place.
