Nila’s Master’s Programs Qualifications
Welcome to my profile! As I'm currently working on my Master of Public Health from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology & in Biological Sciences from the University of Chicago, I bring a strong academic foundation to my coaching. I understand what it takes both as someone that was once an aspiring applicant but now as someone that's close to finishing out their time at a top program! As someone that also has a background that's nontraditional (inclusive of experience in healthcare consulting), I bring a variety of perspectives to how you can make your story stand out or can generally help as a sounding board in the process. My experience in the healthcare sector and involvement in recruitment and mentorship programs have equipped me with the insights needed to guide aspiring master's program applicants. Whether you're looking to refine your application strategy or need support with personal statements, I'm here to help you succeed. Let's connect and craft a plan to achieve your academic goals!

Why do I coach?
I could not have progressed through each milestone in my life and succeeded in new environments without the help of key coaches and mentors in my life. I love to pay it forward and return the advice & mentorship I've received over the years. I have navigated a non-traditional path and love every step I've taken to-date. I'm constantly learning and growing myself, so I'd love to share the experience, lessons I've learned, and perspectives to help you find your own success whether in undergrad, grad school, the healthcare world, or beyond! I'm sure we can connect on some commonalities where I can bring something helpful to your journey. Looking forward to connecting soon.
