About June

Hi, I’m June. I’m a CPA and currently a Tax Manager at a Big 4 accounting firm. I’m on Leland to help people who are balancing a demanding career with the pressure of standardized testing. I know how it feels to come from a "quiet," highly technical background like Big 4 Tax and wonder if you can stand out. For me, the GRE was the key to opening those doors. I scored a 332 total, with a perfect 170 on the Quant section, while working full-time in Big 4. That score helped me go from a niche tax role to securing Full-Ride Scholarships at both Chicago Booth and Northwestern Kellogg. I also received admission and scholarship offers from MIT Sloan, Columbia (CBS), Yale SOM, Duke Fuqua, and NYU Stern.

Why do I coach?

I coach because I know what it’s like to feel "invisible" in a highly specialized, technical role. For 7+ years in Big 4 Tax, I worked on complex tax matters, but when I decided to pivot toward an MBA, I initially worried my background was too "quiet" to compete. I realized quickly that the GRE wasn't just another test; it was my way to prove my quantitative rigor and create a launchpad for my career pivot. I coach to help others realize that their "niche" background is a strength, not a limitation. Balancing a 60+ hour work week in Big 4 Tax while studying for a perfect Quant score wasn't easy. I had to learn how to be incredibly efficient with my time and strategic with my energy. I want to share those same strategies with you. Whether you’re a fellow CPA looking to break out of a specific career path or a professional from any "technical" field, I’m here to help you hit the scores that turn "maybe" into a "yes". For me, coaching is about more than just formulas; it’s about giving you the same confidence I found when I realized my technical precision was exactly what top-tier schools were looking for.
