About Michelle
I am a current student at the University of Pennsylvania, and I was also accepted to Berkeley, Duke, Johns Hopkins, Oxford (for Classics), Georgetown, among others.
I have won national awards (Scholastic Art and Writing gold and silver medals) in my poetry, prose, and visual arts portfolios, and used my writing as part of my college admissions essays.
I'm excited to work with you, provide technical feedback on essays, or help you develop a well-rounded creative writing portfolio!
