Master's Admissions Expert | 62 Coached | 6,000+ Applications Evaluated
I’m qualified to coach professional master’s applicants because I’ve helped build and lead the programs they are applying to. At UC Irvine, I directed the Master of Data Science and Master of Computer Science programs, served as Associate Director for the MSBA and MFin programs, and helped develop the new Applied AI master’s program and its admissions framework. I’ve also served on admissions committees, advisory boards and currently teach graduate students. My path into higher education began in academic counseling, where I studied gaps in student retention and helped create support programs. That experience still shapes how I coach: I look closely at both your preparation and the opportunities or barriers behind your record. I can help you choose programs, assess where your application is strong, and use specific evidence in your essays, resume, and interviews to explain why you’re ready.
