Writing Help

Tess Bolosan is a skilled writer, public speaker, and communicator. A 2nd generation Filipina, she doesn't speak Tagalog nor Ilocano as her parents did; but, she's familiar with some of the more common grammar foibles that come from those languages when switching to English writing.

• "Tess helped me write and practice my introduction speech for the Miss Fil-Am 2016 & 2107 competitions. She also helped me with college entrance essays. She's fun to work with and makes my writing flow smoothly." -Rozelle Rubio, 1st runner up, Miss Fil-Am 2017
• "I won the essay competition for Miss Fil-Am 2016. During the pageant, Tess helped me with not only figuring out what my platform would be, but how best to articulate my reasons for that platform. As Miss Fil-Am, I raised over $500 for activity scholarships for kids in need. Her help editing and honing my speech really made the difference." -Ella Hazzard, Miss Fil-Am 2016
