Undergraduate Writing Consultants
Allyna
Hello, my name is Allyna and I am a junior here at KU from Des Moines, Iowa. I am an international business and finance major on a pre-law track, so I specialize in personal statements, cover letters, resumes, and business writing; but I am not exclusive to just that. I can also help with brainstorming to start off your writing projects or to chat about ideas you may have regarding them! In my free time, I frequent boba shops in town and enjoy crocheting. I have a few published works in the state of Iowa and one day plan to write my own historical fiction. Feel free to book an appointment with me to write, plan, or chat!
