    In the top 10% of Law School experts on Leland

Hi, I'm Carla — a JD candidate and Knight-Hennessy Scholar at Stanford. I was raised in Reno, Nevada (very, very close to Lake Tahoe) and consider myself a mountain girl at heart. I graduated from UT Dallas in 2021, with no Ivy League name to lean on, and I know exactly how intimidating scholarship and law school applications looked from where I was standing. I remember the daunting blank-page-syndrome of staring down an essay prompt and not writing a single word for three days. When applying to law school, I received acceptances to Stanford, Harvard, Columbia, Georgetown, NYU, UMichigan, and UC Berkeley (the last three of which were all full-ride offers). Beyond applying for law school, I have ample experience with tough scholarship applications, having interviewed for the Rhodes, Marshall, Soros, Knight-Hennessy, Schwarzman, and Truman scholarships (the last three of which I won). My specialty is helping you find the story only you can tell, and telling it well. Don't believe me? Read my reviews. Still don't believe me? Book an intro call and let's find out.

Carla has helped clients get into these schools:

Hey future colleague! I'm a current JD candidate and Knight-Hennessy Scholar at Stanford Law school. I've been through many rodeos when it comes to grueling applications, and I did it all without coming from a name-brand school for my undergrad. I've worked with dozens of clients on Leland to help them get into their dream schools, and my hope is that I can do the same for you. Whether you don't know where to start or are looking for some feedback on your final drafts, I'm a message away!

Why do I coach?
