US & UK Admissions Guide | Application Strategy Coach

With a robust background in recruiting and leading recruiting teams at prestigious global strategy consultancies like Bain & McKinsey & Company for ~15 years combined with a deep understanding of the US and UK university admissions process, I am well-equipped to guide you through your college application strategy and journey to determine where, why, how, and when to apply. As an MBA graduate and former member of UPenn's Wharton School's student admissions committee, an MSPH graduate of UNC's Gillings School of Public Health, and a BSc graduate of UVA's McIntire School of Commerce, I have firsthand experience in what top US schools are looking for in applicants at the graduate and undergraduate level. I am passionate about helping students craft compelling applications that highlight their unique strengths and potential. Let's work together to make your college dreams a reality!
