Experience

Academic/Research Writing - I have studied the art of writing in a research context for more than six years. I have published two articles in professional journals and expect to produce another publication next year. I also have completed my Master's thesis, which is now under review. College Essay Writing - I have the experience of applying to many undergraduate and graduate programs. Having worked closely with university professors as a teaching assistant and research assistant, I have gained an in-depth understanding of the skills and attitude that an ideal candidate should exhibit. Cover Letter/Resume Writing - As I am just finishing up my graduate work, I have recently composed many many cover letters and resumes. I have discovered what works and what does not, and I can share that experience with those on the job market. Music History - I have studied music history in academia for six years, and I have had the opportunity to conduct exciting research in historical pianos at Montreal's Center for Interdisciplinary Research in Music Media and Technology. I also play an historical brass instrument from the Renaissance period, called the cornetto.

Hobbies

I love museums and music, and it is my aspiration to work as a curator of historical musical instruments. I have received my first job opportunity at the National Music Museum as a Curatorial Intern, and I hope to expand on that experience in the museum world. I very much enjoy writing, and I have served as an editor to many of my friends and colleagues in their research, applications, and resumes. In addition to writing in the research context, I also enjoy creative writing - especially poetry.
