About Lucas
I'm a third-year medical student at NYU Grossman School of Medicine, where I am also completing a Master’s in Clinical Investigation. I was also admitted to other top medical schools, including Duke, Penn, and Yale. Prior to medical school, I graduated from Brown University with a Sc.B. in neuroscience and spent two years conducting genomics research at the National Institutes of Health. At NYU, I have served as a medical school admissions interviewer. I have experience mentoring students through the college, graduate school, and medical school admissions processes. I specialize in helping students develop big picture admissions strategies, craft compelling narratives, ace interviews, and negotiate scholarships. Learning about my mentees stories and sharing in their gratification when they achieve their goals is why I coach.
