College Admissions Coach | Cornell Alum | BlackRock Associate
Hi! I’m Lulu, a Cornell University graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Applied Economics and Management, and currently an Associate at BlackRock. With a strong academic foundation and professional experience at a leading firm, I bring a wealth of knowledge to my coaching. Over the past five years, I have successfully guided numerous students through the college admissions process, helping them craft compelling applications that showcase their unique strengths. As part of my personalized approach, I take the time to understand each client as an individual—getting to know your interests, passions, and goals. This enables us to craft a cohesive narrative throughout your application that authentically represents you.The process is collaborative, and I view it as a true partnership where we work together to create a compelling story.
