About How Zhi
Hey! I grew up in Singapore before moving to the US for college at Berkeley, and very briefly, a masters at MIT. I've recruited to and explored various industries -- product management, strategy, software, consulting, and investing -- all at awesome establishments from which I've learned plenty. I deeply believe in accelerated iteration through intentional exposure, and I'd love to help you achieve that too. I am excited to work with candidates applying to college, test takers (100th percentile GMAT, SAT, ACT), and folks navigating internships/ college career processes.
Why do I coach?
Being international often brings another dimension of pressure in college applications, career choices, and recruitment processes. I'd love to share my experiences in navigating these, in hopes they'll be valuable to you. I've been doing this on campus since college, but now I'm inspired to formalize this, and to try to be the most helpful I can be to a wider audience.
