Cambridge PhD Candidate | Recent University of Notre Dame Honors Grad
Welcome to my profile! As a Gates Cambridge Scholar and PhD candidate at the University of Cambridge, I bring a wealth of academic and research experience to my coaching. My journey through the University of Notre Dame, where I majored in Honors Biochemistry and minored in Data Science, has equipped me with a strong foundation in both the sciences and analytical thinking. I've had the privilege of working in diverse research settings, including the Mayo Clinic and Pfizer, which has honed my ability to guide students through the complexities of college applications, especially those with a focus on STEM fields. Also, I was able to serve on an admissions board for a scholars group at Notre Dame, so I've learned what they are looking for in a future student. Whether you're aiming for top-tier universities or need help navigating the admissions process, I'm here to provide personalized support and insights. Let's work together to craft a compelling application that showcases your unique strengths and aspirations. Reach out to start your journey towards academic success!
