About this Gig
Do you want one-time expert feedback on your personal statement? Have you got some content or style concerns? Have you used AI and want to know if it's obvious? Are you looking for a final set of eyes on your PS?
This gig is one round of feedback to give targeted advice on content, language, and style to get your personal statement moving in the right direction. NO editing is included.
I am an experienced professional proofreader and editor who loves crafting personal statements that reflect your specific knowledge, skills, and experience with style and flair. I graduated from the University of Oxford with a BA in Ancient and Modern History and an MSt in Archaeology, so I am well-versed in the style needed for academic writing.
I am a native English speaker who has edited thousands of undergraduate and postgraduate (e.g., master's and PhD/DPhil) personal statements, statements of purpose, and research proposals for successful applications to:
- Oxbridge, UCL, LSE, Imperial, Edinburgh, St Andrews, etc.
- All major US colleges (inc. Ivy League)
- Law and medical schools in Canada and the US
- CUHK, SUTD, HKU, HKUST, etc.
- Leiden University (and other European universities)

FAQ
Are you a native English speaker?
Yes, I was born and raised in Birmingham, England. I studied at the University of Oxford for four years (BA Ancient and Modern History; MSt Archaeology).
Do you give feedback on AI-edited or AI-written texts?
Yes, I can give feedback on AI-edited, AI-ideated, and AI-written texts. I find that the best approach if AI has been used is to write the personal statement from scratch because AI does not offer the necessary nuance, detail, depth, personal style, and human-ness required in applications.
Do you work on AI-translated documents?
Yes, of course! I have done a lot of work for EFL students — whether they have translated their work themselves or using a tool such as Deepl.
Where did you study?
I graduated from the University of Oxford with a BA in Ancient and Modern History (2017) and an MSt in Archaeology (2018).
