Welcome

You have approximately three sentences to grab the attention of a weary, glassy-eyed college admissions committee. Selecting those sentences is an art, a science, and to some extent a Hogwarts-worthy act of witchcraft. It is also, for most applicants, very stressful, a depthless source of anxiety, family drama and self-doubt.

I help applicants find their true voice, and then I help them hone it like a VS-1 diamond.

I cannot guarantee admittance to your first-choice school but I can guarantee you'll feel good about your essay when you hit "submit," and that you will show up as your authentic best self on the page.

Testimonials

WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING

My daughter has signed up for 7, yes, 7 ACT tests since March and had them all cancelled— even the one scheduled for December. Her essays are key now. Thank goodness she has Amy. Amy is the Pied Piper of college app essays. My daughter WANTS to follow her down the merry path. Or maybe Amy is better described as a snake charmer— for a kid who hates to do what everyone expects her to do, Amy has helped her focus her energies and writing style into something interesting and unique. Thank you, Amy! (Accepted: Harvey Mudd, Lewis and Clark)
