After our initial conversation, she worked directly with my son, helping him develop his ideas and patiently guiding and encouraging him throughout the entire essay-writing and college application process. She has a wonderful way of keeping students on track while allowing them to take ownership of their work.

“Dani was absolutely amazing from start to finish! Working sessions began with in-depth conversations that brought out personal, authentic stories, which later became a well-written college essay that truly reflects who my daughter is. As a parent, I was able to be completely hands-off as Dani took the lead, set timelines, and built a strong rapport by providing meaningful feedback that helped my child find her own voice. We felt confident submitting applications with such a strong essay and have been delighted to begin receiving acceptance letters! We highly recommend DC Essays!” –S.B. (parent)
