I help Master’s applicants clarify their direction, craft a compelling narrative, and secure funding—aiming for successful admissions and funding outcomes, backed by my experience as a former MIT Assistant Dean and Harvard Admissions Officer. With 20+ years of experience in graduate education leadership, I’ve supported thousands of applicants through distinct pathways for research-based and professional degrees. I understand what committees look for—and more importantly, what students actually need once they’re in. What I help with: • Career Pivot Strategy: Translating your work history into a focused academic narrative that shows readiness and purpose • Program Fit & Degree Type: Choosing between M.S., M.Ed., M.Eng., M.P.P., or other paths based on your goals and values • Funding Guidance: Identifying and negotiating merit aid, fellowships, and fee waivers to reduce financial stress • Application Materials: Writing statements, short answers, and resumes that show both alignment and impact • Decision-Making Support: Interpreting offers, evaluating ROI, and planning for sustainable success in fast-paced programs As a PhD student researching equity and student well-being, and a Board Exam Candidate in Health & Wellness Coaching, I offer evidence-informed coaching that supports both outcomes and your whole self, fostering a sense of being truly supported and understood. Whether you're seeking advancement, transition, or healing through education, I help you move forward with clarity, confidence, and care.
