Fine Arts & Design Master’s Admissions Consultants

I've guided students to success at top universities worldwide, including Harvard, Oxford, and INSEAD. My admissions committee experience equips me with insider knowledge to enhance your application strategy. Whether you're aiming for a top-tier program in Europe or the US, I'm here to help you craft a compelling application that stands out. In recent years, my clients have been admitted to master's programs at: University of Oxford University of Cambridge LSE: London School of Economics & Political Science King's College London Sciences Po (Paris School of International Affairs) HEC Paris INSEAD Università Bocconi ESSEC ESCP Esade Erasmus University Rotterdam Duke University University of Chicago Tufts University I love helping candidates sharpen their research proposals and statements of academic purpose. My own diverse academic and professional background allows me to support candidates across the social sciences, humanities and business. What's more, I've pursued graduate research in both France and the United States, and I've taught at the bachelor and master level in France, the US, and Germany. For candidates who aim to span geographic or disciplinary boundaries in their work, I'm happy to be a resource.

I am an ESSEC Business School and Paris Sorbonne graduate, with 15 years of experience recruiting and coaching talent. Beyond my executive search work, I regularly participate in admissions interviews and selection boards for leading international institutions and programs including HEC, CEMS, IFM Paris, and NEOMA Business School. Having evaluated hundreds of applications, CVs, and interviews from both candidates and students, I have developed a strong understanding of what makes a profile truly stand out in highly competitive selection processes.

I know that choosing a Master’s program is about much more than getting into a good university. It’s about figuring out what you want to learn, where you want it to take you, and which programs genuinely fit your goals, interests, and profile. I hold a Master’s in Design Engineering from Harvard University, where I was recognized for teaching and leadership, and bring 15+ years of experience across product and technology at companies including Amazon, Meta, and Deloitte. I’ve also helped students think through graduate-school options and applications, including program selection, positioning their experiences, and developing a compelling and authentic application story. I enjoy getting to know what makes each person distinctive and helping them translate that into a thoughtful application and a well-considered graduate-school strategy. We can work through the big questions as well as the details, from deciding what kind of program makes sense for you to figuring out how to present your experiences in a way that feels genuinely yours.

You may be considering a master’s to deepen your knowledge, change careers, advance professionally, or prepare for research. Choosing a path means considering not only the degree and the program, but also the kind of learning community and life you're choosing. Together, we can explore whether graduate study makes sense for your goals, compare your options, and prepare applications that communicate what you bring. My advising draws on more than 20 years in graduate education, admissions, funding, and student support, including leadership at MIT and experience at Harvard and the University of Maryland. We can work on research-oriented and professional degree options, program selection, application strategy, and feedback on your statements and résumé. We can also discuss recommendations, interview preparation, funding, affordability, and admission offers. You remain the decision-maker. My role is to help you understand the process, weigh the trade-offs, and make informed choices about the education, community, and opportunities you are considering.

With a background in advising candidates for undergraduate, law school, and medical school admissions, I've successfully guided clients to top institutions such as Harvard, Yale, Stanford, and Columbia.

A strong graduate application connects where you've been to where you're going, clearly and convincingly. Helping applicants make that connection is what I do best. I've edited essays for successful applicants to graduate programs at Harvard, Stanford, Princeton, Oxford, LSE, Carnegie Mellon and WashU Olin, as well as to two of the most competitive scholarships in the world, the Rhodes and Schwarzman. The applicants I've worked with came from very different fields, from finance to fine arts to video game design, but each needed the same thing: a clear story connecting their past experience to their future goals. My own career has given me a practical sense of how professional experience reads on the page. Since graduating from Harvard, where I was chosen as the Harvard Orator to deliver the graduating speech at Commencement, I've worked in strategy, product and account management and co-founded two startups. I know how to take a resume full of projects and responsibilities and find the narrative underneath it. I'll help you decide what to emphasize, cut what doesn't serve your story, and sharpen every draft until your essays sound confident, specific and unmistakably like you.

Since completing my bachelor's degree in 2022, I have received both the Schwarzman Scholarship and Princeton in Asia Fellowship, and have also been admitted to Harvard Business School via the 2+2 deferred admissions program (in addition to admission into the deferred programs at UChicago Booth, Columbia Business School, Northwestern Kellogg, and more). I have extensive experience with crafting personal statements, securing letters of recommendation, preparing for behavioral interviews, and general application strategy. Although there are many kinds of graduate programs you might be interested in applying for, they all require you to tell your unique story through a combination of essays, recommendations, and other aspects of the application — I can help you present your best, most polished self for your strongest chance at success!
