About Victoria
I bring both firsthand success as an applicant and insider experience from the admissions side. I am currently a medical student at a top-5 U.S. medical school and matriculated directly from undergrad. I have been a private tutor since 2015, with over 1,000 hours of one-on-one academic tutoring, and I have spent years mentoring students through college and medical school preparation personally and through various organizations. I have also served as a medical school admissions interviewer for multiple application cycles, giving me firsthand insight into how top programs evaluate applicants beyond grades and test scores. I help students strategically shape their experiences, personal statements, and interviews into clear, authentic narratives. I can't wait to work with you and hear about your story!
