Ryan Prior is an award-winning journalist telling stories at the front lines of science and democracy. Over the past 12 years, he has written hundreds of stories for CNN, Psychology Today, The Guardian, The Nation, STAT, USA Today, and The Daily Beast. He has produced work across documentary film, nonprofits, book publishing, and think tanks. His reporting spans pandemic response, science policy, geopolitical conflict, and national security. His recent experience includes field reporting in Ukraine, along with study trips to Israel/Palestine, the Balkans, and Western Europe through Harvard Kennedy School and RIAS. Ryan believes the best journalism connects the dots between high-level decisions and lived experiences of people on the ground — making the strategic personal, and the personal strategic. His writing combines the rigor of data-driven reporting, the intimacy of narrative memoir, and the pragmatism of a policy brief. It’s a rare, yet essential blend in today’s climate of misinformation and polarization. He is the author of The Long Haul: How Long Covid Survivors Are Revolutionizing Healthcare (MIT Press/Penguin Random House), which explores the global impact of the pandemic and the chronic illness crisis that followed. The book has been called “a book we need right now” by Senator Tim Kaine and “an important contribution” by the Secretary General of the World Health Organization. It has also been featured in Newsweek, Los Angeles Times, CNN, Democracy Now, Psychology Today, Science, and The Lancet.

Hi! I have more than 30 years of professional experience across multiple geographies and industries - I've worked in senior, client-facing roles in finance within investment banking, management consulting, healthcare, international trade & development and even luxury travel. When I decided to leave my finance career of 15 years at J.P. Morgan (both New York & London) in 2015, I identified some of the most fulfilling aspects of my various roles as a manager – building trust-based client relationships; developing young professionals to have the skills and confidence to reach their full potential; coaching people through pivotal career junctions – and embarked on a completely new professional path in education, admissions and career consulting. Over the past 10 years, as a senior MBA admissions consultant with one of the leading consulting firms, I have successfully partnered with hundreds of talented young professionals from all geographies, backgrounds, industries and functions via highly tailored, 1:1 engagements. I’ve not only helped my clients achieve their career and education goals, which include offers to all the top US & European business schools, but also secure millions of dollars in scholarship funding, prestigious fellowships, and most importantly the confidence, clarity and purpose to step forward successfully into the next stage of their educational and professional journeys. As an American living in London and who has also lived, studied, and/or worked in France, Switzerland, Mexico and Brazil, I am deeply knowledgeable of the numerous international educational pathways at both the undergraduate and graduate level that exist for ambitious, globally minded young people. Over the past decade, my admissions consulting practice has expanded to include supporting high school students, undergraduates and recent graduates - from all over the world – who aspire to matriculate in leading universities in the UK (UCAS, including Oxbridge), Europe, and Asia at either the undergraduate or non-MBA post-graduate level (law, marketing/brand strategy, data science, finance + economics, medicine + dentistry (inc post-bac), policy/international affairs, architecture, teaching, etc). I’ve also successfully supported countless applicants in securing highly competitive scholarships and have occasionally advised on NCAA sports recruiting. I completed my MBA at Columbia Business School in 2001 with honors and concentrations in Finance and Entrepreneurship. I’ve maintained close ties to Columbia by assisting the Admissions team as a CBS Ambassador and candidate interviewer, gaining deep insight into the admissions process. I also have extensive experience on the on-campus corporate recruiting side, having been actively involved in J.P. Morgan’s summer and full-time recruiting programs at University of Chicago Booth, Yale SOM, and UNC Chapel-Hill in the US, and at Oxford University in England. Finally, I’m very attuned to the test preparation process. I had the opportunity to deploy my love of teaching by leading GMAT, GRE and SAT test prep classes in the mid-1990s at The Princeton Review’s then newly founded Mexico City office, whilst I worked full-time at the American Chamber of Commerce of Mexico. I draw on my understanding of the test prep process to be a sounding board, advisor and supportive confidant to my admissions consulting clients as they often undertake their testing process in parallel.

Welcome to my profile! As I'm currently working on my Master of Public Health from Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and hold a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology & in Biological Sciences from the University of Chicago, I bring a strong academic foundation to my coaching. I help applicants craft compelling, strategic applications for top MPH and MBA programs by combining firsthand admissions success with real-world career insight. Let's chat so I can help you create a standout application and play to your strengths! I was admitted to multiple top Master of Public Health programs and currently attend the #1 program in the country. Coming from a non-traditional background, I had to learn how to position my experiences, motivations, and career story in a way that resonated with admissions committees—experience I now use to help other applicants turn their backgrounds into strengths. Whether you come from a traditional background or one like mine, I know what it takes and have insight from a grad student perspective too -- graduating this Spring! Before grad school, I spent ~5 years in strategy consulting, giving me deep insight into the professional backgrounds and career trajectories that top MBA programs value. I’ve seen firsthand the types of experiences that successful applicants bring to business school and have helped candidates craft applications that clearly connect their past experience to their future goals. This perspective—combining graduate admissions success with real-world consulting experience—allows me to help applicants develop applications that are both authentic and strategically compelling.

I am a Master in Public Policy graduate and incoming PhD student at Harvard University.

I approach applications strategically, helping people to clearly communicate their story, sharpen their essays, and position their experiences in a way that resonates with admissions committees. Whether it’s structuring a compelling narrative, refining statements of purpose, or preparing for interviews, I focus on being practical, honest, and tailored to each applicant’s goals.

I am qualified to coach Masters applicants through first-hand experience of competitive postgraduate admissions. I was admitted to the University of Oxford’s MSc in Global Health Science and Epidemiology and awarded a full scholarship worth more than £50,000. My own application required me to present a coherent academic narrative across biomedical science, research, public health, and quantitative methods, while clearly demonstrating programme fit and long-term goals. I also have extensive mentoring experience, having supported multiple students with successful applications to leading universities in the UK and US. I provide structured, detailed feedback on programme selection, CVs, personal statements, research experience, scholarship applications, and interview preparation. My coaching is particularly suited to applicants targeting selective MSc programmes in public health, epidemiology, biomedical sciences, life sciences, business, management (including MBA) and related fields.

Welcome! I earned my master’s degree in Comparative Social Policy from the University of Oxford, where I developed firsthand experience with the graduate admissions process and the demands of a rigorous, internationally competitive master’s program. I understand that applying to graduate school is about more than presenting strong credentials. It’s about articulating a clear intellectual direction and showing why a particular program is the right next step. I help applicants develop that narrative, from identifying the experiences and interests that distinguish them to crafting compelling statements of purpose and personal statements. My background also includes degrees from Duke University and Stanford Law School, as well as experience practicing law as an associate at Gibson Dunn. I have built my career around research, persuasive writing, strategic communication, and distilling complex experiences into clear and compelling narratives. Whether you’re deciding how to position your academic and professional background, developing your statement of purpose, or refining your final application materials, I’ll help you present a thoughtful, cohesive application that demonstrates both what you have accomplished and where you want to go next.

Welcome! I’m a Harvard and Wharton graduate with professional experience spanning investing, consulting, and finance at Jonathan Rose Companies, Boston Consulting Group, Omidyar Network, and Goldman Sachs. I’ve coached applicants across MBA, MPP/MPA, and other graduate programs, helping them turn their experiences, ambitions, and values into compelling and cohesive applications. My approach combines strategic positioning with hands-on support—from identifying the stories that best differentiate you to refining essays, resumes, recommendations, and interview preparation. Whether you’re starting from a blank page or looking for a strategic second set of eyes on an application already underway, my goal is to help you build an application that is authentic to who you are and clear about where you’re going.
