College Admissions

Hello! With over two decades of experience as an English teacher at a nationally ranked high school in Illinois, I've spent countless hours guiding students through the college application process, particularly in crafting compelling personal essays. As a Premium Consultant with Quad Education Group, I leverage a highly selective approach to help students gain admission to their dream schools, including Ivy League and other elite institutions. My unique insights stem from my time working with the University of Chicago's admissions committee, where I reviewed applications and conducted interviews. Having consulted with well over 100 students, I am passionate about helping each one develop authentic narratives and navigate the entire application journey. Let's work together to make your college dreams a reality!

With three decades of experience as a College Admissions Advisor and Founder of Cambridge Prep, I've successfully guided hundreds of high school students and their families through the college admissions process. My highly personalized essay writing support, expert guidance throughout the process and proprietary test prep materials have helped hundreds of clients gain acceptances to the colleges of their choice, regularly including elite institutions like Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Berkeley, Dartmouth, University of Chicago, Boston College and many more. My knack for college admissions advising is rooted in my own journey. After earning a Christian A. Herter Memorial Scholarship, I gained admission to every elite university I applied to, choosing Harvard University to study Social Anthropology and Economics. Upon graduating with honors, I realized my passion for helping others achieve their college dreams by bringing a holistic, humanistic perspective to the college admissions journey. Whether you're just beginning the process or need a final review, whether you experience learning differences or are an exceptional achiever, I'm here to support you in recognizing your college dreams and turning them into reality.

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.

I've been on both sides of this process, from getting into BYU on a scholarship to working with Admissions Directors here at Leland. I navigated BYU admissions without a consultant, completed a competitive business school application, and nailed internship-to-offer pipeline firsthand.

Now I work in Expert Success at Leland, where personal branding is my day job! I'm your expert's expert for branding. :) I spend every day helping Leland coaches sharpen how they present themselves and connect with the right people.
