The "Help Me with My Personal AND Supplementary Statements" Package
Want help with not only your personal statement, but your supplements/optional statements as well? This is the package for you. Everything included in the "Help Me Craft an Authentic Personal Statement!" Package is also included in this grouping along with guidance to assist you in writing your optional statements. For the personal statement, we'll focus on brainstorming topics (if needed), narrowing down your narrative and storyline, and crafting the best and most genuine essay possible for highlighting why you want to go to law school. If you've already got a rough draft, I can guide you through making your PS as strong as possible. For the optional statements, I will talk you through deciding which ones you need and want to write (including LSAT, GPA, character and fitness, "why X" school, diversity, and any other school-specific prompt essays), and then we will come up with a game plan for how to carefully word and craft each one.
What's included
If you need brainstorming and topic help for your personal statement and/or optional statements, we'll meet virtually to hash out a plan and come up with a rough outline. Once you have delivered drafts to me, I will review them asynchronously and we will go back and forth until we're both satisfied. This package includes three virtual meetings - one to brainstorm if need be and two more to use however you please. If you don't need the brainstorming session, we can use all three meetings for discussion or other questions you might have.
- Brainstorming topics for your personal statement with a one-on-one meeting
- A deeper understanding of your motivation for applying to law school, your goals, and why you're at this point in your life
- An outline and up to four drafts of your personal statement until we get to a point where we both feel like its hit the mark
- Confidence that your personal statement reflects YOU while also satisfying what admissions committees are looking for
- Up to three drafts of each supplementary essay
- Three virtual meetings to discuss topics, brainstorm, and talk through questions
- A strong, expertly crafted, narrative-focused personal statement AND supplementary essays

Law Admissions Guru | Specializing in Underrepresented Applicants
I'm a prime example of how having a law degree does not mean that you can *only* practice law. I'm a born and bred Texan and Houstonian who went to Texas A&M University, graduating with my Bachelor of Arts in Political Science. I came back to Houston to attend law school at the University of Houston Law Center, graduating in 2004, and I practiced municipal/contracts law as an assistant city attorney for about one year before I decided that it just wasn't for me (hey, I tried). I ended up boomeranging back to UHLC and started down the path into higher education as a career counselor, where I stayed for almost three years. After a bit of a career pause to raise my daughter and a few other gigs, I decided I wanted to try my hand at law admissions at UHLC, where I stayed for eight years as both an assistant and associate admissions director. I left in 2021 after the pandemic to spend more time with my teenager at home, and began a different career path as a freelance copy editor, copywriter, and SEO/content creator. In 2025, I finally decided to take the leap and start my own law school admissions consulting business, something I've been wanting to do for at least five years. When Leland reached out to me to see about becoming a coach for them, it seemed like a no-brainer and a perfect addition to my business, and here I am!
