Master's Programs Consultants, Events, & Resources

Hola, welcome to my profile! With a Master in Public Administration from Harvard, and a rich background in finance, entrepreneurship and social impact, I am passionate about helping others navigate the complexities of master's program applications. ABOUT ME: I'm the founder of Eki Labs, a climate tech start-up backed by MIT and Harvard, and I have +10 years of experience as a Course Manager at Harvard, a Strategy Director at Ashoka, a Finance Leader at Procter & Gamble, and a Fellow at Acumen Fund. Having successfully coached five individuals into top master's programs, I am eager to help you craft a compelling application. Let's connect and make your academic aspirations a reality!

Welcome to my profile! With a law degree from NYU Law, where I received a full tuition scholarship and served on the student admission committee, I bring a wealth of experience to my coaching. I also hold a Master's Degree in Public Policy and Administration from the London School of Economics and Political Science. My professional journey includes roles as a public school teacher, corporate law attorney at top law firms, and in house legal counsel. I have a passion for helping aspiring students navigate the complexities of master's program applications, drawing on my own academic and professional experiences. Whether you need guidance on application strategy, essay writing, or interview preparation, I'm here to help you succeed. Let's connect and craft a plan to achieve your academic goals!

I take a highly supportive approach to coaching and aim to create an environment in which my clients can be completely open about their worries so I can be the best possible coach for them. That said, you can expect me to be constructively candid – because coaching is about challenging you and accelerating your growth, not making you feel good so I can collect a check. Besides sitting on both Northwestern's and Stanford's alumni admissions councils, I was an interviewer at Google and Meta, so I've spent many hours "on the other side of the table" and can give you a strong sense for how you might be perceived by interviewers and admissions committees. I enjoy coaching people from a huge range of backgrounds, but I specialize in coaching folks from lower-income families, LGBTQ+ candidates, and those who need extra help crafting their personal narrative.

I hold master’s degrees from both NYU and Clemson, so I understand firsthand what it’s like to apply to competitive graduate programs - and how to stand out. My 11+ years working in admissions at top universities have given me an insider’s perspective on what committees look for and how candidates can distinguish themselves. As an ICF-Certified Coach, I bring a supportive yet strategic approach to guiding applicants through the graduate admissions process. From refining your personal statement to highlighting your academic and professional achievements, I’ll help you craft an application that demonstrates your readiness and confidence.
