About Alana
Throughout my education, my area of expertise has always been my ability to write effectively and dynamically. I have a number of writing achievements, such as receiving English awards and being selected to write a speech for an event introducing former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel. My proudest achievement is my college essay, which I believe was a strong part of my acceptance to Princeton University, where I attended college.
My achievements come from my ability to make essays as strong and moving as possible, and over the years, I've developed a deep passion for helping others do the same. With this perspective, for 6+ years, I've helped students get accepted to some of the country's top universities such as Vanderbilt, Georgetown, and Howard Medical School. I am confident that my writing guidance produces guaranteed improvement in essay and writing skills.

My greatest reward comes from when students I've worked with come back and tell me specific stories about the positive feedback they've gotten on their improved essays. I enjoy making students truly proud of and confident in their essays.
I started out in high school, just casually helping my friends strengthen their application essays to various programs/colleges. It soon turned into a passion, and when I received a lot of positive feedback and suggestions to continue doing it, I began to help more and more people in various types of writing--including essays, resumes, social media posts, etc.
I have B.A. (Cum Laude) from Princeton University, where I wrote numerous essays, including research essays, persuasive essays, and a final senior thesis project.

My typical process for working with a new student involves initially asking questions and listening. By doing this, I aim to:
1) get to know the individual better as a person in order to help bring his/her/their personality into his/her/their writing
2) find out the student's objectives to ensure I help meet them
3) establish a comfortable communication environment to facilitate the flow of ideas
I primarily work with high school, undergraduate, and graduate students.
Look for someone who is genuine and willing to give you their undivided attention. Look for someone who asks you the right questions and listens.
One of my students who applied to medical school this year excitedly told me that an admissions officer said her essay was one of the strongest in the school's pool of applications. Comments like these make me really passionate to continue helping people express themselves in their writing.
