Founder & Principal Consultant, CW Admissions | UVA Law J.D.
I’m a law school admissions consultant and the founder of CW Admissions Consulting, the admissions consulting practice of CW Academic and Career Strategies, LLC. I guide applicants across the admissions cycle, from early stage strategy and school selection to personal statements, interviews, waitlist strategy, and scholarship negotiation, with a focus on helping candidates present themselves clearly, credibly, and strategically. A graduate of the University of Virginia School of Law, I’ve been involved in admissions work since my undergraduate years, first in student roles, including working in the Cornell admissions office as a student and serving on an admissions task force during law school, and later in a professional capacity as an admissions reader. Before moving fully into admissions consulting, I practiced as a federal attorney and later spent several years in the financial and wealth management sector. I also served as a consultant at 7Sage and later at Barrier Breakers, where my work focused on supporting first-generation law school applicants, before launching my own practice. My approach is not about templates or generic editing. It is about positioning. That means understanding how admissions committees evaluate applications, identifying what actually distinguishes you, and building a coherent, persuasive case for admission. I work best with applicants who want honest, strategic guidance, people who do not just want their materials to sound better, but want their applications to make sense as a whole and reflect who they are and where they are going.
