    I am a seasoned professional with more than 20 years' experience as a dedicated freelance writer, editor, and ghostwriter. This is not a hobby, side job, or sporadic gig. I take enormous pride in my craft and strive to provide the highest level of service regardless of project size, complexity, or subject matter. My portfolio ranges from full-length fiction and non-fiction (memoirs, novels, cookbooks) to brief documents (bios, press releases, resumes) with an emphasis on collaboration and providing expert-level service to each and every client. I am currently a highly coveted academic essay writer/editor, a resume and cover letter expert, and senior editor for an international PR firm. My expertise in the college admissions essays and overall academic niche has earned me an international reputation for assisting students and student candidates with materials such as dissertations, theses, personal statements, statements of purpose, and letters of recommendations, to name a few. I have also excelled in the Wikipedia services niche, quickly emerging as a top Wiki writer and editor for individuals, universities, and other notable entities. No project is too large, too small, too simple, or too complicated. Diversity and adaptability to virtually any niche, as well as to the specific needs of each client, are what separate my skills from the rest of the talent pool. When I take on a new project, I attack it voraciously and with a singular determination to complete it at a higher level than anticipated. Most importantly, I am willing to work with my clients to provide exactly what they need, collaborating on material until completed to 100% satisfaction. *** "David was an excellent help. A savior! Fast, flexible, and gives clear feedback. Real professional with excellent work. Highly recommended!!!" "David and I collaborated and communicated very well. He understood what I wanted to express in my personal statement and brought my thoughts to life. He restructured my free thoughts so well. His turn around time was quick and always thorough. He didn’t have a limit to the number of revisions in our contract. Each revision got drastically better. Very impressed and would highly recommend he took a lot of stress off my shoulders." "David was wonderful. He gave me great feedback and revisions, often within a few hours even close to major MBA application deadlines. I can definitely recommend David to give all of your essay materials a final pass' -- he'll make your voice crisper and stronger. I've already gotten several interviews at top 10 schools and David's wordsmithing was no small part of that."

I interned at the PBS station WNET in New York City for a Peabody award-winning arts program.
