The work, in practice
Student writing and dissertation coaching for the work that matters.
Coaching is a conversation with structure. We look closely at what you are trying to say, what the reader needs, and what the draft is asking you to solve next.
Ways to work together
01
Student writing
Undergraduate essays, applications, and ambitious independent projects. We will sharpen the question, organize the material, and help you make choices you can defend.
02
Dissertation direction
A thoughtful outside reader for the long middle: chapter architecture, argument, transitions, and the next useful decision when the whole project feels too large.
03
Humanities tutoring
Patient, rigorous conversation for students learning to read carefully, test an interpretation, and make a stronger argument.
04
Campus speaking
On-campus sessions and talks for groups who want a more generous, more rigorous relationship with writing, revision, and the public life of ideas.
