Cornell & Apple Alum | Transfers, Low GPA, &Non-Traditional Candidates

Hello and welcome to my profile! With a B.S. in Industrial & Labor Relations from Cornell University and an upcoming M.S. in Systems Engineering from Johns Hopkins University, I bring a strong academic foundation to my coaching. My professional journey includes roles at top companies like Apple and Adobe, where I honed my skills in engineering program management and strategic planning. Over the years, I've successfully coached 62 students to gain admission to Columbia University, University of Pennsylvania, Cornell University, University of Southern California, Vanderbilt University, and more, helping them navigate the college admissions process with confidence and clarity. I specialize in transfer student applications and also candidates with lower GPAs. Whether you're crafting your personal statement or selecting the right schools, I'm here to provide personalized guidance and support. Let's work together to make your college dreams a reality!
