About me Why College Essay Builder
I graduated from BYU in English and German started my career teaching. In 2007, I started writing professionally; my work has been featured in regional and national publications. I also began helping students with college application essays. The universities and programs my students have been accepted to include: Oxford Study Abroad, Kellogg, BYU MBA, University of Utah Medical School, BYU Provo, and several other undergraduate and graduate programs.
After several years of coaching, I decided I wanted to offer more services to more clients than my own schedule would allow. So, using the knowledge and insights I've gained over the years, I created College Essay Builder. Using proprietary materials, our professional coaches offer Comprehensive Application and Essay packages, Common App packages, BYU Provo packages (free with purchase of another package), and Professional Essay Review Packages.

I lived in in the multicultural and multiethnic country of Qatar for 8 years where language and communication were at the forefront of life.
