College Admissions Coach | Yale Admissions Office | Forbes 30 Under 30
I'm an experienced college admissions coach, having helped past clients get into Ivy League schools and other top-ranked US colleges. I serve as an alumni interviewer for Yale applicants. I'll guide you through all aspects of the admissions process, including your personal essays, activities, standardized testing, recommendation letters, and alumni interviews. I myself was admitted to multiple Ivy League colleges (Yale, Columbia, UPenn), and direct BS-to-MD medical programs at Northwestern and UCSD. I completed my undergrad degree in Electrical Engineering at Yale University before joining McKinsey & Company as a management consultant after graduation. I was featured on the Forbes 30 Under 30 List for the Consumer Technology category in 2021.
