Ex-Disney Creative Technologist | Admissions Story Expert | Berkeley CS
Berkeley CS alum, Walt Disney Animation Studios Creative Technologist, NYU Tisch Dramatic Writing MFA candidate | Specializing in mentoring STEM, interdisciplinary, and creative applicants | Learn admissions storytelling secrets and craft a memorable personal narratives | Seven years of admissions mentorship experience | You've worked hard, earned good grades, achieved high test scores, and have built yourself an impressive resume. Well, so has everybody else! The truth is, communicating your personal story as compellingly as possible is essential to differentiate your application from the thousands. Let me help you tell your personal story compellingly so you will truly stand out. Years of experience in the film industry has strengthened my love of storytelling and knowledge of what makes a good story—one of my greatest strengths as an admissions coach. Everyone has a good story, but telling yours isn't always easy! I'm here to demystify the process and support you at every step: from brainstorming to final polish. My approach centers on cultivating a central "main idea" that highlights YOUR unique talents and how you will contribute significantly to your prospective class. Beyond securing college admissions, I aim to impart lifelong storytelling skills, which are invaluable for personal and professional growth. Prior to pursuing my MFA in Dramatic Writing at NYU, I graduated from UC Berkeley with a Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science and a minor in Chemical Engineering. I've earned four associates degrees from Santa Barbara City College in Math, Physics, Chemistry, and Liberal Arts & Sciences: Concentrating in Science and Math. Professionally, I hold years of experience working as a lighting artist and software engineer with some of the most reputed software engineering teams in the world, including teams at Walt Disney Animation Studios, Disneytoon Studios, and Disney ABC Television Group. I hold film credits on Encanto, Frozen II, Moana II, Raya and The Last Dragon, Strange World, and Forevergreen. I have seven years of admissions consulting experience, guiding students toward their acceptance to top programs including UCLA, USC, UChicago, UMichigan, Cal Poly SLO, UNH, Washington State, UOregon, URI, as well as receiving interview invitations from MIT, Stanford, Yale, Princeton, and more.
