Sonya’s Master’s Programs Qualifications

Welcome, aspiring design masters students! With dual Master's degrees from Stanford's d.school (the birthplace of design thinking!) and the London School of Economics, I bring a blend of creative and analytical frames to help you navigate master's admissions. Professionally, I've designed and built products at some of the largest tech companies (Microsoft, Meta) and done product and strategy work at cutting edge startups. I've dabbled across a breadth of industries: enterprise productivity, fintech, ed-tech, gaming, accessibility, and VR. This broad exposure allows me to help applicants from a wide range of backgrounds craft compelling, cohesive stories to get into the program of their dreams! Whether you’re targeting design, HCI, or interdisciplinary innovation programs, I’d love to work together and tailor your application strategy to maximize your chances of success. Feel free to reach out to discuss how I can support your journey!
