    Stanford undergrad | 10+ years experience | 200+ clients

    ◆ 10 years of experience as a college admissions coach, with a focus on undergrad admissions and a skew towards international applicants ◆ Coached 200+ candidates to land acceptances at their dream schools, including Stanford, Harvard, and other top universities ◆ Personally accepted to Stanford in 2015 and graduated at the top of the class ◆ After graduation, spent 6 years as a management consultant at McKinsey, then launched an investment fund called Par 3 Partners Ten years ago, I built a college admissions toolkit that helped me get accepted into Stanford -- my dream school. Since then, I’ve refined that toolkit by working with hundreds of students -- continuously adding, pruning, and sharpening it into a highly targeted, repeatable system that works. For example, I'm thesis-first, meaning that before you write a single word, I work with you to define the one sentence an admissions officer should be able to repeat about you after a six-minute read. Today, I systematically train candidates on this program, coaching them to think and communicate the way that top schools expect: powerful, confident, and compelling. I work with candidates across the full admissions cycle, from high-leverage, last-mile prep for those nearing deadlines, to end-to-end partnerships covering school selection, letter of recommendation strategy, interview prep, and early-stage essay development. Clients frequently describe my feedback as direct and precise, but warm and supportive. I won’t sugarcoat, and I won’t let vague thinking or unclear communication slide, but I’m deeply invested in each candidate’s success and fully bought into helping them perform at their best when it matters most. If you’re looking for someone with the experience to show you a process that actually works, I’d be excited to partner with you.
