About Taylor
Hi, I’m Taylor, an MIT undergrad, Wharton MBA, and former McKinsey consultant turned startup builder. I’ve helped launch clinics, close funding rounds, and coach applicants into their dream schools and jobs. I’m a strategist by training, a healthcare nerd at heart, and a firm believer that the best applications feel like a story, not a sales pitch. When I’m not coaching, you can find me taste-testing NYC's best pastries, reading three books at once, or running through Central Park.
Why do I coach?
I coach because I know how lonely and overwhelming these processes can feel and how powerful it is to have someone in your corner who gets it. I’ve been the overthinker, the career switcher, the person second-guessing every word of an essay. What changed everything for me was having mentors who helped me see the bigger picture and own my story. Coaching is my way of paying that forward. I love helping people get clear on who they are, what they want, and how to go after it with confidence.
