Gabe Kahn is a reporter, editor, columnist, PR specialist, proofreader, and writing coach, primarily working with students on their college and graduate school essays. He grew up in a Boston suburb and after earning a Bachelor of Arts from Brandeis University, he began his writing career as a sports reporter covering the Celtics for The Boston Globe and Boston Metro. Eventually he became the assistant editor of OT (Our Towns, Our Teams), the Globe’s acclaimed—but ultimately short-lived—weekly sports magazine.

He moved to New York in 2009 and earned a Master of Science from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism while working in public relations and writing for various publications. In 2016 he became the editor-in-chief of the New Jersey Jewish News, and later served as editor of Boston’s Jewish Advocate, the Philadelphia Jewish Exponent, and MetroKids, a parenting magazine distributed in Philadelphia and southern New Jersey.

For more than fifteen years Gabe has been coaching high school and college students with their personal statements, from workshopping ideas until pressing submit on a completed essay, and what’s more, he’s getting pretty good at it, too! Reach out to Gabe for questions, rates, scheduling, or to see some awesome essays that worked if you, your kids, your friends, your friends’ kids, whatever, need help writing/editing college or graduate school personal statements. All sessions are over Zoom or Google Hangout, so neither distance nor time zone will be impediments to working together.
