Description
This plan is designed to help you craft standout supplemental essays and materials that elevate your college application and make a lasting impression on admissions committees. As someone who has been on the student admission committee at Columbia University and has interviewed over 30 students, I understand the nuances of what makes an application truly shine. We’ll work together to ensure your supplemental essays and materials are not only well-written but also strategically aligned with your overall application narrative. Here’s what you can expect from our collaboration: - Kickoff & Strategy Session: We’ll begin with a comprehensive discussion about your academic interests, extracurricular activities, and personal experiences. This will help us identify the key themes and stories that will resonate most with your target schools. - Essay Development & Editing: I’ll guide you through the brainstorming and drafting process, ensuring your essays are authentic and compelling. We’ll focus on clarity, coherence, and creativity, making sure each essay reflects your unique voice and perspective. - Secondary Review & Feedback: After initial drafts, I’ll provide detailed feedback and suggestions for improvement. We’ll go through multiple rounds of edits to ensure your essays and materials are polished and impactful. Throughout the process, I’m here to support you with personalized advice and constructive feedback. My goal is to help you present a cohesive and compelling application that captures the attention of admissions officers and showcases your potential. Let’s work together to make your college application stand out and get you one step closer to your dream school.

Former Columbia Student Interviewer | Columbia undergrad + Wharton MBA
As a Columbia graduate and an incoming MBA candidate at The Wharton School I offer coaching for both undergraduate and MBA applicants. Over the past 6+ years I have successfully advised students who have gained admission into top schools such as Stanford, Yale, Princeton, Brown, UPenn, UC Berkeley, and USC. What I offer: Story-telling: A bad story can kill a great application and a great story could be what gets you into your dream school. I help prospective applicants craft a singular narrative that is authentic, compelling and intentional. Interview training: As a trained interviewer at Columbia I am able to give high quality mock interviews for any program International perspective: I did not go to high school in the US and there was no playbook for college admissions. I navigated the undergraduate and MBA application process on my own, and received admissions to several Ivy Leagues and top schools.
