Edward’s College Qualifications
I’m an A.B. graduate of Harvard College and was also admitted to Stanford, Princeton, Yale, and other top schools. I served as a Harvard alumni interviewer for four years in New York City, giving me firsthand insight into what top colleges look for in applicants. I help students present their story authentically and effectively to stand out in highly competitive applicant pools. I work with aspiring college students to clarify their narrative, strengthen applications, and prepare for interviews, providing practical guidance and structured strategies to approach the process with confidence.
