Welcome to my profile! As a recent matriculant of the University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman School of Medicine, the application process is fresh in my mind and I am here to help! Just last year, I received interview invitations from more than 18 elite medical and graduate programs and acceptances from the likes of Harvard, Yale, Stanford, and more. For most institutions, MD-PhD applicants are evaluated separately by the medical and graduate school, meaning that despite my specialized track I have ample credentials to help both medical and graduate students as they undergo this rigorous process. As a first generation college student, I have also worked especially closely with my Alma matar’s Ivy League career services department, providing me with additional professional knowledge that I can share with you! I have also serviced as an interviewer both for the University of Pennsylvania undergraduate early and regular decision cycle and Perelman School of Medicine’s applicants. I currently conduct volunteer career services counseling for first generation low income students at Penn interested pursuing medicine and biomedical research. I mentor students at all stages from sophomore to gap year. My most recent class of mentees have received interviews at Harvard, Yale, Washington University in Saint Louis, Emory, and more. Whether you're a top student aiming for a competitive program or a second-time applicant with below-average GPAs and MCATs, I have the expertise to guide you through the evolving medical school admissions landscape. From personal statements and secondaries to letters of recommendation and school lists, I provide comprehensive coaching tailored to your unique strengths and goals. Let's work together to create a compelling application package that showcases an authentic picture of who you are and maximizes your chances of success. Reach out to me today and let's get started!

Hello! My name is Gloria and I'm a second-year medical student at Northwestern University with a strong academic background from Case Western Reserve University, where I graduated summa cum laude with a dual degree in Biology (BA) and Finance (BS). My experiences as a Teaching Assistant in various courses, STEM Teaching Fellow, and ACT Tutor have equipped me with the skills to guide students through the inevitably difficult journey of college, medical school admissions, and beyond. I have a thorough understanding of the admissions process from years of intensely studying the intricacies of each step and networking. Whether you're looking to strengthen your application or need guidance on navigating the college or medical school admissions landscape, I'm here to help you succeed. Let's connect and create a plan tailored to your goals!

I've built my path to medicine on real work. I've been an ocean lifeguard and EMT, a scribe, and provided relief medicine at the border, worked global health in India, and trained in tactical medicine since childhood. These weren't resume line items. They shaped how I understand what medicine actually is and who belongs in it. I know the application process from the inside because I've lived it. I've written personal statements that work. I've navigated research projects and built a track record. I'm currently conducting grant-funded brain injury research at UCLA and splitting my clinical time between emergency medicine rotations and mentoring premeds. I've also been through the entire cycle from admission to residency rank lists which means I understand not just how to get in, but what happens after you do and what matters for your next step. What I bring to coaching is pattern recognition earned through doing the work myself, not theories about what committees want. I know how to help you articulate what you've actually done in a way that's credible and compelling. I mentor premeds regularly because I'm invested in people who are serious about medicine getting there. That same investment shapes how I work with applicants: clarity over hype, authenticity over tactics, building an application that reflects who you actually are.

With a background at McKinsey, venture investing and speechwriting in public sector / policy, I'll bring multiple lenses to your writing that I've seen lead to admits to top medical schools, residencies and dual-degree programs. As a top-ranked coach on Leland, I've successfully guided over 400 clients into leading programs, including some lesser-known, but incredibly competitive fields within the medical world. In all my time coaching, I've helped applicants secure over $10M in scholarships with an editorial approach that might feel intense, but is direct and incisive to help bring out the absolute best in your writing. You'll be working with someone who's edited professionally in high-pressure situations, who understands how to elevate your writing and will be right alongside you in taking all your materials to a level where you'll stand out and begin to see it before you even hit submit. I also teach other coaches in essay writing, and will be a Senior Entrepreneurial Instructor this Spring through U Chicago Booth, helping executives on pitching, communication, and startup investing -- so will be putting many of the skills into practice that I work with people on through Leland. Though I originally didn't see myself working with med school applicants, residents, or much more complex specializations in the medical world, my time in essay writing, interview preparation, and comprehensive application strategy has continued to translate into outcomes that land people in top universities, residency programs, fellowships, and even longer-term work with physicians launching their new practice. If you need guidance on your application strategy, writing, resume, recommendations, interview prep and more -- reach out and set up some time for us to talk through exactly what you're looking for and where you need help most.
