About Serena

I help law school applicants build strategic, authentic, and cohesive applications for top law schools. I was admitted to multiple T14s, including Columbia, NYU, Northwestern, Cornell, and Duke, with more than half-tuition scholarships across offers and a full-tuition scholarship from Columbia. As an international applicant, I also especially enjoy coaching international and first-generation students through personal statements, diversity statements, resumes, school-specific essays, scholarship positioning, and overall application strategy.

Why do I coach?

I coach because I’m genuinely passionate about admissions and love giving applicants the guidance I wish more students had access to. It is extremely fulfilling to help students turn uncertainty into strategy, recognize the power of their own stories, and succeed in a process that can often feel opaque — especially for first-generation and international applicants. My goal is to help you feel confident, supported, and ready to submit an application that truly represents you.
