Ryan’s College Qualifications
Coaches professionally
I earned my bachelor's degree from Dartmouth College and was admitted to multiple highly selective universities, including Dartmouth, Duke, Brown, Cornell, Johns Hopkins, Penn, Northwestern, and several other Top 20 institutions. Having successfully navigated the college admissions process myself, I understand what it takes to stand out in an increasingly competitive applicant pool. I specialize in helping students develop compelling personal statements, supplemental essays, activity lists, resumes, and overall application strategies. I work closely with students to identify their most compelling stories, build cohesive application narratives, and effectively communicate their accomplishments and potential. I have particular experience helping high-achieving students, first-generation students, underrepresented applicants, and those seeking admission to Ivy League and other highly selective universities. Whether you're aiming for a Top 20 school, pursuing merit scholarships, or trying to maximize your admissions outcomes, I can help you craft an application that reflects your strongest and most authentic self.
