Experienced educator and essay reader with legal background, skilled in evaluation and writing instruction.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am an experienced educator and legal professional who evaluates student writing and supports academic decision-making. I have worked as an Advanced Placement essay reader and as an adjunct instructor in paralegal and criminal justice programs, teaching both in person and remotely.
My career includes classroom teaching at the secondary and college levels, private legal practice, and trial and appellate work, which sharpened my analytical, persuasive writing, and oral advocacy skills. I have coached moot court and mentored students through academic and career development.
I am practiced at high-volume, deadline-driven review work, using rubrics and adapting processes to meet employer needs while maintaining confidentiality and discretion. I collaborate effectively on committees and accreditation teams to improve programs and student outcomes.
I appreciate diverse viewpoints and have experience working with students and clients from varied backgrounds, focusing on improving writing skills and identifying potential in applicants for admissions and academic programs.
