Hi, I'm Julia! As a current JD candidate at Yale Law School with extensive experience in legal research and advocacy, I am passionate about helping aspiring law students navigate the admissions process. My background includes working for the Innocence Project and the Brennan Center for Justice, where I honed my skills in legal writing, strategic litigation, and policy analysis. I have a proven track record of mentoring and guiding students through complex legal concepts and application strategies. Whether you need assistance with crafting compelling personal statements or preparing for interviews, I'm here to help you present your best self to law schools. Let's work together to make your law school dreams a reality!

Welcome to my profile! As a current JD candidate at Harvard Law School and a seasoned professional with diverse experiences at Kirkland & Ellis, Milbank, the International Monetary Fund, and 9fin, I bring a wealth of knowledge to law school admissions coaching. My background includes a strong foundation in economics and international affairs from George Washington University, where I graduated Summa Cum Laude. I have successfully coached numerous clients through the law school application process, helping them craft compelling narratives and navigate the complexities of admissions. Whether you need assistance with personal statements, interview preparation, or overall application strategy, I'm here to guide you every step of the way.

I got into UVA Law — a T14 — as a first-generation, low-income applicant with a 3.4 GPA and a 150 LSAT, both below their medians. I know what it takes to earn a "yes" when the stats say no, because those were my numbers. I've also worked the other side of the desk: as an admissions counselor at Empowerly and my law school's BLSA Membership Chair, working alongside UVA Law admissions on recruiting, where I saw how a top admissions office actually weighs a file. The applicants I've mentored have gone on to UVA Law, Duke, and Stanford. And as a practicing commercial litigator at a boutique trial firm, I can tell you what the legal career on the other side of this application really looks like — not the BigLaw-desk version. My focus is splitters and underdog applicants: first-generation, low-income, and non-traditional students who keep being told their numbers aren't good enough. Your LSAT is not your ceiling.

As a recent Stanford Law School graduate and Knight-Hennessy Scholar, I bring a wealth of experience and insight into the law school admissions process. I have successfully coached over a dozen aspiring law students, helping them navigate the complexities of applications and secure spots at top law schools. I've continued to work with many of my admittees as they enter law school, select courses, apply for internships, navigate the job search, and secure federal clerkships. Whether you need guidance on crafting compelling personal statements, strategizing your application, or want to maximize your law school experience and future job opportunities -- I'm here to help you make your goals a reality. Let's connect! What's the process like? I like to do a 15-30 minute meeting up front to understand your background, goals, and priorities. We identify tasks to accomplish and set deadlines for each, taking a step-by-step approach that feels manageable. Clients can send written drafts anytime, and I provide written feedback within 48 hours. I'm always available to answer pop-up questions and support. We schedule follow-up meetings as needed.

I was admitted to Stanford Law School during one of their most competitive admissions cycles (2021). I can speak to law school admissions, as well as the unique challenges of being a JD-PhD applicant. I've coached dozens of students successfully through law school admissions, and I can coach you too!

Welcome to my profile! I am currently pursuing a JD/MBA from The Wharton School (UPenn) and the University of Pennsylvania Law School. With my unique background in both law and business, I bring a comprehensive perspective to help aspiring law students navigate the admissions process. Although I am new to formal/paid coaching, I have consulted with dozens of candidates on the application process. Personally, I was accepted to a majority of the T-14 law schools (including a significant merit-based scholarship at UPenn) and currently hold a 3.9 GPA in the law school classroom. My experiences as a Summer Associate at Latham & Watkins and a Law Clerk at the United States Department of Justice have provided me with insights into the legal profession—I hope to leverage these insights and more to help you craft your story. I aim to provide honest, straightforward advice rooted in direct experience, ensuring you're prepared for the rigorous journey ahead in law education. Let's connect and discuss how I can support you in achieving your goals!

Welcome to my profile! I bring a unique blend of academic and professional experiences to help you navigate the law school admissions process. I am currently attending Stanford Law School, after having received admission to several other T14 law schools and some very generous scholarships. I deferred law school for a year to obtain a Masters at Oxford University on a full scholarship from Columbia University. I have extensive experience in editing application essays and resumes for mentees and friends, and several of these people have gone on to win prestigious fellowships or gain admission at T5 law schools such as Columbia Law School. I am committed and detail-oriented – key components in crafting compelling law school applications. I'm here to guide you through every step of the process, from personal statements to interview preparation. Let's work together to make your law school dreams a reality!

I grew up in Raleigh, North Carolina, and earned my degrees in French and Political Science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I went on to pursue my Juris Doctor (JD) at Duke University School of Law — an experience that deepened my love for the study of law. While I briefly worked in the legal field, I quickly realized that what truly inspired me wasn’t practicing law — it was helping others find their path through education. That realization led me to pivot into the field of international higher education, where I discovered my passion for mentoring students through the admissions process. For over 15 years, I’ve worked in university admissions at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. As a former admissions officer, I’ve reviewed hundreds of applications from students around the world. My experience includes serving as the Assistant Director of Recruitment and Admissions at the University of Chicago Booth Executive MBA program, where I gained firsthand insight into what top-tier programs look for in standout candidates. I spent over a decade living in Hong Kong, where I worked with both local and international students on applications to law school, MBA, Master’s, and undergraduate programs. Now based back in Raleigh, I continue to support students worldwide as they pursue their academic and professional goals. Whether you're applying to T14 law schools or exploring a specialized legal program, I bring a unique blend of legal training, admissions experience, and global perspective to help you craft a compelling, authentic application.

I didn't take a straight path to law school, and that's exactly why I can help you figure out yours. I seriously considered applying straight out of undergrad, then chose to build my career first at Goldman Sachs, and then still decided I wanted to deepen that experience by diving into renewable energy industry in Nairobi, Kenya before I finally felt ready to commit to a JD. I've thought through every version of this decision, at every stage, and I know how much the timing, framing, and self-knowledge behind your application actually matters. Along the way, I've coached my fellow Goldman Sachs analysts through our informal Law School Admissions Preparation program and guided friends, colleagues, and fellow alumni through the graduate school process. While recruiting for Big Law this year, I earned one of the strongest interview scores in my law firm's recruitment cycle and secured a leadership fellowship worth $50,000. My approach starts with understanding your goals and background, so that whether you need career strategy, application advice, or interview prep, we're building on what's already strong about your story.

Hello and welcome to my profile! I’m a rising 1L at UC Berkeley School of Law, attending with a significant merit scholarship. During the admissions cycle, I was honored to be accepted to half of the T14 and received hundreds of thousands of dollars in scholarship offers from top law schools. With a strong academic foundation in political science and environmental studies from UC Berkeley, I bring a unique and strategic perspective to law school admissions coaching. My professional experience in communications and government has shaped me into a strong idea generator, writer, and editor. These skills are critical for crafting standout applications. Whether you need help with personal statements, interview preparation, or overall application strategy, I’m here to help you navigate the path to your dream law school.
