College Admissions

I'm an MIT grad and current MBA student at Columbia, but more importantly, I've spent years thinking deeply about what makes someone compelling to colleges. My background in buy-side equity research taught me to spot what's truly valuable, and that skill extends perfectly to helping you understand what makes your story stand out. I've walked the path you're on. I know what it takes to get into a top school, how to navigate competitive environments, and how to communicate your authentic self when stakes feel high. Whether you're an athlete, an artist, or someone with a unique story to tell, I genuinely believe every student has something colleges are looking for. We just need to find it and frame it right. Beyond the application, I'm here to help you think strategically about your choices, build confidence in your voice, and create a narrative that feels true to who you are. No generic templates. No fluff. Just honest conversation about your strengths, your goals, and how to present yourself in the best light. Let's make this process feel less stressful and more exciting. You've got this. I'm just here to help you show it.

◆ 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.
