About this Gig
Vetted Pro
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 studied at the University of Oxford for four years (BA Ancient and Modern History; MSt Archaeology), so I am well-versed in the academic style needed for personal statements, statements of purpose, and research proposals. With over a decade of editing experience, I enjoy working collaboratively with each person to achieve an authentic, persuasive, and flawless personal statement. That's why I offer unlimited revisions to ensure you are as satisfied as possible!
I am a native English speaker who has edited hundreds of undergraduate and postgraduate (e.g., master's and PhD/DPhil) personal statements, statements of purpose, and research proposals for successful applications to Ivy League colleges as well as law and medical schools in both Canada and the US; Hong Kong universities; and of course, the University of Oxford, the University of Cambridge, and other Russell Group universities.
