Harvard PhD Programs Coach | Admitted to 15+ Top PhD Programs
I’m a strong PhD programs coach because I understand firsthand what it takes to stand out in the most competitive academic applicant pools. I graduated summa cum laude from Penn with an interdisciplinary dual-degree background across the College and Wharton, and I’m now pursuing a PhD in Biomedical Informatics at Harvard Medical School. I was admitted to 15+ PhD programs and 20+ undergraduate programs across HYPSM, the Ivy League, and other elite top-10 and top-20 U.S. institutions, giving me direct experience navigating admissions at the highest level. My background also includes rigorous research in computational biology, genomics, and AI, published scholarship, national presentations, and years of mentoring through teaching and advising. I help clients turn strong but often complicated backgrounds into clear, compelling applications that are intellectually serious, authentic, and memorable.
