About Gursahil
Hi, I’m Gursahil! As a first-generation college graduate from UCLA, I understand the unique challenges first-gen and low-income students face when navigating the college admissions process. Coming from a similar background, I’ve experienced how overwhelming it can be to access the right resources and advice. That’s why I’m passionate about helping students like you take charge of their future by providing personalized guidance on applications, essays, and interview prep. Having interned at leading companies like Deloitte, Lockheed Martin, and Pacific Gas & Electric, and with my deep understanding of college admissions strategies, I’m here to empower you to put your best foot forward. My mission is to make the admissions process less daunting and more accessible for first-gen and low-income students, ensuring you have the tools and support to succeed. Let’s work together to craft your story and get you into the school that’s right for you!
Why do I coach?
I coach because I understand how daunting the college admissions process can feel—whether you're unsure where to start or how to tell your story. I’ve been through it myself, and I know how valuable it is to have someone by your side to offer guidance and clarity when things seem overwhelming. As a first-generation college graduate, I faced my own set of challenges, navigating the process without a clear roadmap. But along the way, I benefited from mentors who helped me see my potential and supported me in achieving my goals. Their guidance inspired me to give back by helping others who may be in similar situations. Coaching is my way of paying it forward—whether you're from a first-gen, low-income background like me or just looking for someone to help you put your best foot forward. I'm here to help you craft your unique story, overcome challenges, and unlock the opportunities ahead of you.
