I also appreciated how he was always concerned about my needs, like a true friend. Highly recommended!

I got in contact with Agnes again to have a professional edit my MBA application essays. I cannot…read morerecommend Agnes enough. I have never been a strong writer, and while I had an idea of what I wanted to write about, I was not satisfied with the way in which I had written my essays. Agnes was able to help me convey my ideas in a more compelling manner. Furthermore, Agnes was able to provide advice on what would resonate more with the admissions officers and help me refine my ideas. I was extremely busy in the months leading up to the application deadlines, but Agnes' quick turnaround time allowed me to edit each essay enough times and until I was happy with all of them. After sending an essay back to Agnes for revision, she replied with a date by which she was able to edit my essay by, allowing me to plan ahead. In the end, I was admitted to Harvard Business School, Columbia Business School, and Kellogg School of Management. I strongly recommend Agnes to anyone who needs help with their essays.

My son is a high school senior. Agnes did a one-on-one call with me and answered questions via…read moreemail and then did a one-on-one call with my son. Agnes worked with my son on everything from application strategy, timing, resume, essay edits and strategy. She spent time every week catching up with my son and was a true partner. He showed me some of the multiple edits she worked with him. She helped him narrow down his reach/ possible / safety choices (and some new ones) and worked with him on an Early Decision 2 and his regular decisions. My son is smart but has poor organizational skills and timing was never his strong suit. Agnes was great in keeping him on track and making sure he was progressing on time. He and I were happy that he got all his essays done and applications out. My son got into his first choice via ED2 so we were thrilled (unfortunately we had already spent money on regular decision applications but all is good). Would recommend Agnes for any parent looking for a partner for this child.

So I decided to join Len's San Mateo meetup group, and after attending several meetings, he graciously agreed to be my Editing/Publishing Coach. His assistance in developmental and line editing my first book, One Page At A Time, and his guidance in designing the book's layout and cover was invaluable and a whole lot of FUN! So much so, that we continued our collaboration on my young adult book, Misfit Island, a full-length poem book recently published by Quaci Press. Len offers a lifetime of writing, editing and design skills that will greatly benefit anybody looking to write, edit and/or publish their work.

I relocated to the US last Christmas and had to start my job search from scratch in a completely new market. Finding Brian was a turning point. After he helped me update my resume, everything changed. Throughout March, I was getting messages from a new recruiter almost every day, from companies like LinkedIn, TikTok, Walmart, and more. I even had the confidence to reach out directly to a technical manager at a top fintech company and made a great impression. The results speak for themselves. I received offers from both JPMorgan Chase and Cognizant, and I'm still in the final stages with another exciting company (five out of six rounds done). Brian has a real gift for helping you present yourself in the best light. I've already referred my friend to him, and I'm so grateful for everything. If you're thinking about it, just do it. You won't regret it.

Working with Donald relieves much of my stress in writing. When I need to submit important documents such as applications or manuscripts, Donald helps me make sentences clear and concise.

I went through the college admissions process alongside peers with similarly strong academic and…read moreextracurricular profiles, but my family decided to work with a college counselor who offered a far more personalized, high-touch approach. Looking back, I can clearly see the difference in both the application process and the results, and I genuinely believe Dan was instrumental in my success. Although I considered myself a strong writer before this process, nothing could have prepared me for what it takes to craft a truly compelling personal statement. Writing a college essay is completely different from the kind of writing we learn in school - it requires deep reflection, countless conversations, strategic thinking, and an understanding of how to present a student authentically while still standing out among thousands of applicants. Dan is brilliant at identifying what makes each student distinctive and positioning that in a way that affects people emotionally, and is therefore memorable. The essays I ultimately submitted were on an entirely different level than anything I could have produced on my own, and I am incredibly grateful for his guidance throughout the process. When searching for counselors, we encountered several large companies whose approaches felt borderline performative and unconcerned with presenting the student authentically. Dan was the complete opposite. He preserved my voice throughout every stage of the writing process while also pushing relentlessly for quality and clarity. He truly cares about helping students present the strongest, most authentic version of themselves. His feedback was always direct and insightful without ever feeling discouraging - something I deeply appreciated during the tumultuous time that is the application process. Dan kept me grounded throughout and on track. I applied to 20 colleges and was accepted to 18, including Carnegie Mellon - my first-choice school and one of the top universities in the country. I can say with complete confidence that I would not have achieved the same outcomes without Dan's dedicated mentorship. I also feel so much more at peace knowing that this was achieved through writing that feels 100% like me. Working with him was one of the best investments my family made during the college process.
