I've spent the last 16+ years helping ambitious students get into the country's most competitive colleges, including Harvard, Stanford, Yale, Columbia, MIT, UChicago, NYU, and UCLA. Across 300+ college applicants, 95% have been admitted to at least one of their top-choice schools, and over 75% have placed at Top 25 universities. I work best with students who are coachable, motivated, and ready to put in real work - students who arrive with strong but scattered material and need help putting it all together. That's where I add the most value: helping students find a clear narrative across their application, build a school list that's strategic (not aspirational), and write essays that actually sound like them. The goal is applications that feel inevitable instead of cobbled together. I work with students from freshman through junior year, with tailored support depending on where they are in the process: early profile-building and direction in 9th and 10th grade, strategic execution in 11th, and full application support heading into senior year. The earlier we start, the more leverage we have. I graduated from NYU and earned my MBA from Columbia Business School in 2020, which gives me a current, first-hand perspective on what selective US adcoms are actually looking for. My career started in test prep and admissions consulting in Singapore, where I helped expand the company I worked for into Shanghai before returning to New York to found my own practice. I work with both US-based students and international applicants navigating the US system for the first time, particularly the kinds of students who often have the strongest stories but the hardest time articulating them. If you want a structured, strategic partner for your college process, let's talk.

I’m a seasoned college admissions coach with experience across elite admissions, competitive high schools, and high-growth business leadership. I attended a top 10 liberal arts college (Claremont McKenna) on a merit scholarship and was accepted into over a dozen universities (including Pomona, Johns Hopkins, Middlebury, Bowdoin, WashU, USC). I've spent time working in college admissions, serving as an admissions interviewer and leading the campus tour guide program. Since graduating, I’ve built a decade-long career in strategy and business operations, including serving as VP of Strategy & Analytics at AllTrails. Most recently, I’ve returned to education as a high school educator, bringing together my lifelong love for learning, mentorship, and student development. My strength lies in balancing worlds: connecting with high school students and understanding the pressure they face, knowing firsthand what selective colleges are looking for, and offering real-world perspective from a successful career beyond college. As a former college athlete, I also love working with student-athletes navigating the admissions process. Unless you’re a top-tier D1 recruit, getting recruited takes real initiative - building the right list, crafting outreach, showcasing your strengths, and balancing athletics with a strong application. I’ve been through that process myself and have helped others do the same. successfully I know how to guide student-athletes through it with intention and strategy. As a coach, I can help with reflective school list strategy, application storytelling, essay development, extracurricular preparation, athlete recruiting, and interview prep. I bring both empathy and strategic rigor to the process, and I love helping students discover and tell the story only they can. Looking forward to connecting and building a tailored plan for your college journey!
