Services
I work with academic writers at all career stages: undergraduates, graduate students, and experienced researchers. Whether you're writing your first (or fiftieth) journal article, developing a thesis or dissertation, or crafting application materials, I can help.
Working with me means having an ally throughout your writing process. I'm a former microbiologist and currently teach writing-intensive university courses on science history and communication. This means I'm fluent in how science works and how to communicate it clearly. My approach is flexible and relationship-based: we'll figure out together what level of support your project needs and how to meet your timeline and budget.

1:1 sessions to talk through your project, get unstuck, and/or develop your writing skills. Available as single sessions or ongoing support.
Strategic editing and coaching for personal statements, cover letters, and CVs. Flexible hourly support throughout your application cycle for needs big and small.
