Hi! My name is Christian and I am a graduate of Brown University with 5+ years of experience serving as a college essay consultant. I assist students with every aspect of the essay process, from reflecting on their passions and creating a unique and compelling essay topic to iterating through draft versions to dotting i’s and crossing t’s on the final copy edit. My students have been accepted into schools such as Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Dartmouth, UVA, and Stanford. With my help, the college essay transforms from a much-feared and oft-procrastinated obligation to an engaging and enjoyable writing experience completed far before the admissio

I graduated summa cum laude from Cornell University with a double major in Classics and English and 4.02 GPA. I have over 10 years of Latin experience, studying authors like Vergil, Catullus, Tacitus, Horace, Propertius, and Livy and completing additional advanced study in ancient Greek (including Sophocles, Plato, and Lysias). This fall, I will be attending NYU for a Master's in English. I help students master Latin as a language, not just memorize a translation. My method emphasizes fluency and comprehension through adaptive note-taking strategies and immersive instruction— building long-term language skills that go beyond memorization.

I’ve been an educator for 22 years. I obtained a bachelors degree in Elementary Education from Fordham university and I hold both a Master of Arts and Masters of Education from Teachers College, Columbia University. Those degrees are in Learning Disabilities and Educational Leadership respectively. I love seeing the growth of my students and look forward to supporting the needs of each students that I work with.
