College Admissions Coach | Microsoft Product Manager | UC Santa Cruz Grad

Welcome to my profile! As a Product Manager at Microsoft, I bring a unique perspective to college coaching. I graduated from the University of California, Santa Cruz with a Bachelor of Science in Computer Science and Economics, where I was a College Honors Merit Scholar and a Grace Hopper Scholar. Throughout my time in college, I was actively involved in various organizations such as CruzHacks, Google Developer Student Clubs, and Tech4Good. I also gained valuable experience as a Research Assistant in data analytics and UX & qualitative analysis. With my background in technology and a deep understanding of the college admissions process, I'm here to help you navigate the complexities and achieve your goals. Let's connect and discuss how I can support you in your college journey!
