About Christina
Welcome! I’m an NYU Law graduate, practicing attorney, and former teacher. During my own admissions process, I was admitted to both NYU and Columbia Law, among other schools, and received scholarships from both, including a full-tuition scholarship to NYU Law. While at NYU Law, I also worked with the admissions office and my scholarship committee reviewing law school applications, giving me firsthand insight into how admissions committees evaluate candidates and what makes an application stand out. Since law school, I’ve practiced at leading law firms and now work in-house. I bring that experience to my coaching by helping applicants identify what makes their candidacy distinctive and translate it into a compelling, cohesive application. Whether you need help developing your overall application strategy, strengthening your personal statement, refining your resume and supplemental essays, or preparing for interviews, my approach is highly personalized and focused on preserving your authentic voice. My goal is not to write your story for you, but to help you tell it as strategically and persuasively as possible. I’d love to help you put forward your strongest application!
