I received multiple scholarships for every year of my undergraduate experience, and am passionate about making college accessible to students from all backgrounds. Applying to college can be daunting, but as a team we can find the right place for you!

I’ve helped dozens of applicants strengthen their BYU applications, with an exceptionally strong record of admissions success. I especially enjoy working with high school students, active missionaries, returned missionaries, and applicants whose strengths may not be obvious on paper. As a BYU alum, published author, graduate of Duke’s top-10 MBA program, and former admit to BYU’s highly selective nursing program, I bring a strategic eye to the application process. In my innovation work at the VA, I teach and coach storytelling and pitching, helping people communicate their ideas, experiences, and impact to different audiences. I bring that same approach to application coaching, helping applicants connect the dots across their experiences, clarify their strengths and goals, and communicate their story in a way that feels authentic, focused, and compelling. I also bring a strong healthcare perspective through my nursing background and MBA in healthcare management, and I enjoy helping future nurses, physicians, researchers, and other healthcare professionals explain their motivation, highlight relevant experiences, and present themselves with confidence. Because this work is highly personalized, I intentionally work with only a small number of applicants each application season. This allows me to give each student careful attention, thoughtful strategy, and meaningful feedback throughout the application process.

I’m qualified to coach college applications because I’ve successfully navigated highly selective academic environments, earning a strong foundation in Business and Finance from the McCombs School of Business and studying internationally at the London School of Economics. My professional experience at Bloomberg and J.P. Morgan trained me to evaluate strengths, identify gaps, and present compelling narratives to high-stakes audiences. I understand that admissions decisions are driven by clarity of story, confidence, and positioning—not just grades and test scores. As a life coach, I help students overcome self-doubt, manage complex timelines, and articulate their goals with authenticity and purpose. I bridge the gap between academic achievement and real-world readiness, helping students present who they are and who they are becoming.

As former Student Body President of Stanford GSB, I bring firsthand experience and insights into the admissions process. Whether you are looking for assistance with application strategy, essays, or interview preparation, I'm here to help you create an individualized plan to achieve your goals. I have always been passionate about mentorship and helping students succeed. During my time at Stanford, I served as a Peer Mentor guiding first-year MBA students as they crafted their individual MBA experiences, an MBA Admissions Ambassador representing the program to prospective applicants, and a Section Representative serving as a liaison and advocate for my section. These experiences gave me unique look into the Stanford experience from many angles.
