Support that’s strategic, soulful, and designed for lasting change

You're not just here to finish a project — you're here to reclaim your voice, your power, and your purpose. My work supports you at every stage of the writing and academic journey with expert guidance and deeply human care.

"The level of expertise that Dra. Chang offers is incredible, but more so what I appreciate are the conversations that we have. Talking about everything from theoretical framework, to the structure of the paper, to some insecurities that I have about imposter syndrome and facing this really big project. I will continue to work with Dra. Chang with every academic project that I have going forward. Not just because of the high level of work that she does,

but it’s the friendship and the conversations that I really appreciate."

YOU DESERVE NOT ONLY TO SUCCEED, but to feel energized, inspired, and truly connected to your work.

01

First, reach out to me and schedule your free discovery call, where we’ll discuss your needs and identify which package will work best for you.

02

Based on our conversation, I will create a proposal for you, and then you’ll sign your contract and take care of your invoice to make things official. 

03

Our work together begins with a deep dive session, where we’ll set goals and strategize how we can best utilize our time together. 

04

As we approach the end of our time together, we will discuss next steps. It may be time to wrap things up, or you may decide to continue working together depending on your individual needs and goals.

Working with Dra. Chang was one of the highlights of writing my book. I found her feedback to be comprehensive, thoughtful, and supportive. The process can feel really isolating and lonely - it was really great to have someone who was able to be such a positive force in my writing project. I would definitely recommend her. Don’t hesitate! Go get that work done!

Dra. Chang has been instrumental in guiding me to be the professor I want to be. She sees potential in me that I know is there, but often times I struggle to articulate.

I’ve worked with Aurora a couple of times in the past, and each of those times have been transformational in terms of my thinking. Aurora helped me clarify my thinking around my manuscript, and transform what was essentially a hodgepodge of data and ideas, into a coherent manuscript that was accepted for publication.

YOU’RE in the RIGHT PLACE

My academic support services are for you, if:

You’re an academic - doctoral student or faculty member - seeking holistic writing support for your written work.

The isolation and pace of your academic life has become overwhelming and as a result, you are tired, frustrated, and/or deflated.

You are losing steam or simply know that solid support would up your academic game.

You’re realizing that your “I’ve got this on my own” approach is no longer sustainable.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is your work with clients confidential?

It absolutely is. I understand the politics of academia firsthand, and so confidentiality is my top priority. I aim to foster a safe space of support. 

Do you accept institutional funds?

Absolutely! At least half of my clients use institutional funds (grant funding, start-up funds, professional development funds) to pay for my services. Leave the institutional paperwork to me.

Do you have a sample of a client's writing?

Certainly! I invite you to visit the full portfolio of my client’s work here or view these samples with edits here and here. View Client Work.

Do you offer ghostwriting services?

Yes, I offer ghostwriting services for non-academics only.  Contact me for more details.

Do you work with non-academics?

Yes!  Reach out if you have a project in mind.  Let's see if we're a good fit. 

Do you offer payment plans?

I offer payment plans for clients who are paying out-of-pocket.  All packages come with monthly payment plan options.

Do you work with clients whose first language is not English?

Absolutely! My first language is Spanish and I got my start in and found my love for editing when my mom went back to college in her 40s as a mother of six. I edited ALL of her papers and am proud to say we both graduated from college the same year. I've also worked with hundreds of non-native-speaking students, academics, and clients.
