I help students figure out who they are on paper, then show it with confidence. For high school students, that can start as early as ninth grade. We map out courses, activities and summers around what genuinely excites them so that by senior year their application reflects a story they've actually lived. For students closer to deadlines, I move quickly to find the thread that ties their experiences together and turn it into a focused, compelling application. Along the way, I encourage students to reach past what they think they're capable of, whether that's a bolder project, a harder class or an essay that takes a real risk. I also edit essays for graduate school and scholarship applicants, including successful candidates for Harvard, Stanford, Princeton, Oxford, Rhodes and Schwarzman. Expect honest feedback, a high bar and a partner who is genuinely invested in your growth.
