    About Kimberly G.

    If you're a student who wants to get better grades on your essays, or an aspiring writer looking to take your creative work to the next level, you've come to the right place. I'm a San Francisco Bay Area- based writer experienced in the literary realms of essay production, academic writing, journalism, marketing content, and creative writing. A natural people person, I enjoy the art of effective storytelling, and helping students bring their writing to the next level. Having graduated with honors, I received my B.A in English from California State University, Fullerton. While completing my bachelors, I also excelled in graduate-level Critical Theory and Creative Writing courses. My extensive academic writing experience has enabled me to help high school to college-level students craft exceptional essays through a detailed outlining and editing process. I enjoy igniting the creative muse in others by asking questions that guide students to their own realizations. In regards to my professional career, I've been writing professionally for over 5 years now. I previously worked for The San Francisco Chronicle for over 3 years, and am currently a full-time freelance writer. My work has also been published in OCFamily, OCMenus, AskMissA.com, Home & Builder, The Potrero View, and Positive News. Thanks for stopping by. Contact Takelessons for additional information on how my writing expertise and tutoring experience can help you.
