Meet Andrea

For the past thirty years, I have been a writer, a university writing tutor and now a college essay professional. My training includes a Masters In Fine Arts in writing, the completion of the UCLA College Essay Writing Boot Camp and The Teen Wisdom Coaching program. I have coached dozens of students, both privately and as the co-facilitator of the Kick Start Program- a series of week-long essay writing workshops for rising seniors. Please feel free to contact me if you have any other questions about my training or coaching method.
"I never thought I would say this, but writing my common application essay was actually fun! Andrea taught me how to look inside myself and create an essay about my values, strengths and personal beliefs. We don't learn this in school. But we should!"
- Zoe M.
"Andrea played a pivotal role in helping me craft compelling, transfer essays during my time at Penn State. Not only is she a great esssay coach, but her humor, empathy and desire to help others make her a great guide and mentor."
- Enmanuel E.
"As an international family we were confused about the essay writing process. Andrea took the time to explain everything in a way we could understand. Her background working abroad and with international students made all the difference."
- Rachel L.
"Within minutes of meeting Andrea I knew everything would be OK. I had been so worried about my graduate school essay, I kept putting it off. I now have an essay that truly expresses who I am and what I have to offer my college choices."
- Sylvia V.
