Hello! My name is Esther. I am a freelance writer with over 6 years of writing, editing, and tutoring experience for university-level students. I am also a full-time scientist and current Bioengineering PhD student with a joint appointment between UC Berkeley and UCSF.
Writing and science are both passions of mine – Especially when I can aid students in reaching their professional goals. As such, over the past 2 years, I have been counseling university students in graduate school admissions with a focus on writing and editing services.

Let’s work together to write a precisely crafted, compelling essay to improve your chances at getting into your dream program.
