Hi! My name is Jennifer. In my undergraduate career, I received support from national and state college access programs, and as a way to pay it forward, I was brought back to mentor students as they pursued their professional and academic goals. Since then, I have worked in undergrad and medical schools admissions, learning the ins and outs behind these very competitive admissions processes. Having read for these institutions, I know the difference between average and exceptional applications, and it all starts with the narrative.  Each student has unique experiences, and my goal is to craft essays that highlight my student's qualities and, above all, leave the readers wanting more. In medical school, knowing your “why medicine” is key, so throughout the writing and editing process, I encourage my students to consider how/if their organization, word choice, tone, voice, and style add to their narrative. In undergrad admissions, a similar approach applies, but this time, we answer: who am I, what matters to me, and how have I been shaped by the world around me? As a coach, I provide detailed feedback that guides students towards the end goal, and I also  read essays line by line until we have a stellar application–whether it be for AMCAS and AACOMAS or for Common App and the UC application. Overall, I am here to take the pressure off your shoulders. No ask is too big or too small, and I am here to listen, encourage, mentor, and empower. Through this collaborative partnership, my students have successfully won fellowships, scholarships, and acceptances to top colleges and graduate schools, which include: -Harvard University -Princeton University -University of Chicago -University of Southern California -Columbia Law School -Duke Law School -Georgetown University School of Medicine -Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth -USC Marshall School of Business -Johns Hopkins Carey Business School -NYU School of Global Public Health
