Hi! My name is Ellen and I’m a recent graduate from Princeton University in the Philosophy Department. I’m an aspiring writer and artist and I am passionate about creative collaboration and communication. My strength lies in helping students and other writers figure out how to say what they mean in clear, concise and vibrant language. Reading and literature have been central to my life and I enjoy helping others find their own path to appreciation and mastery in these fields. In my free time, I love cycling, amateur archeology, and antiques.
