College Essay & Application Coaching from Harvard Alumnus
College admissions can be stressful and confusing - let me help you and your family navigate the process 👇🏾 🎓 I get it: The admissions process was stressful when I was applying and has only gotten more so ever since. With support from my family, mentors, and high school, I was able to navigate the process, securing admission to Harvard, Yale, Columbia, University of Chicago, Amherst, Georgetown, and NYU Abu Dhabi. I ultimately chose Harvard, a decision that changed my life. I want to help others do the same. 📄 Admissions essay review: Since graduating from Harvard, I've had a successful career in consulting and investment advisory, through which I've honed strong written and verbal communication skills, which I then leveraged to succeed in the master's and J.D. process. I am a strong writer and editor, having won several awards for my book-length undergraduate thesis. I can help you communicate your narrative effectively in a rapidly changing college admissions environment. ♟️ Strategy: The U.S. college admissions process is a game of chess, not checkers. Beyond communicating the narrative, I can help you identify the schools and programs that might be a good fit, provide guidance on the early admissions process, and contextualize the financial aid process.
