Erin Williams

Welcome! I’m a Stanford Law School graduate with an academic background spanning Stanford, the University of Oxford, and Duke University, and I’m passionate about helping students tell the story of who they are and what they bring to a college community. I’ve built my career around persuasive writing, strategic thinking, and helping people communicate complex ideas with clarity and purpose. At Gibson Dunn and Accountability Counsel, I developed a rigorous approach to research, writing, and advocacy, while my work as a Communications Consultant at Change Matrix gave me experience helping others identify their strongest ideas and communicate them effectively. I bring that same approach to admissions coaching. Rather than trying to fit students into a formula for the “perfect” applicant, I help them identify what is distinctive about their experiences, interests, and perspective—and translate that into an application that feels cohesive, authentic, and compelling. Whether you’re brainstorming a personal statement, refining supplemental essays, or figuring out the broader narrative of your application, I’ll provide thoughtful, candid feedback while making sure the final product still sounds unmistakably like you.
