Harvard alum, experienced admissions coach for top US and Chinese students
When I was an undergraduate at Harvard I started helping students apply to top schools, and then was a full-time admissions coach for exceptional Chinese high school students in Beijing. I have extensive experience creating school lists, crafting essays to tell your most compelling story, strategizing about extra-curricular activities, and preparing for interviews. My goal is to partner with you, working side by side to make sure your best and brightest self shines through the application process.
