Hi! I’m Lisa Bain Grossman. I am an experienced writing coach, as well as a professional journalist. With me, you get a technical, PR, feature and medical writer and an eagle-eyed copyeditor. I am jolly, patient and supportive. See what people have said about me or learn more.
“Lisa met with me multiple times over the course of a couple months, and each time she came with a smile, patience, and excellent advice. During our time together, she helped me reconstruct my resume to be well-worded, persuasive, and eye-catching.
“After finishing my time with Lisa, I went on to win over $145K in scholarships to my dream school. I can honestly say that none of it would have been possible without Lisa. Her patience encouraged me, while her advice sculpted my skills into something scholarship-worthy. I cannot recommend her highly enough!”
