Prestigious Scholarships & Fellowships Qualifications: As a Ph.D. student in Experimental Physics at the University of Texas at Austin, I have developed a comprehensive understanding of the competitive federal fellowship landscape. I have successfully secured funding from the nation’s most rigorous STEM programs, demonstrating a proven ability to communicate complex research to diverse review panels across the Department of Energy (DOE), the National Science Foundation (NSF), and the Department of Defense (DOD). Strategic Success Across Federal Agencies: My expertise is built on a track record of high-level scholarship and successful application strategies: - NNSA Stewardship Science Graduate Fellowship (SSGF): I currently hold this fellowship, which supports my doctoral research in stewardship science and includes a 12-week practicum at an NNSA laboratory. - NSF Graduate Research Fellowship (GRFP): I was awarded the NSF GRFP in 2025 and subsequently declined it to accept the NNSA SSGF, providing me with unique insight into the differing priorities of these two major funding bodies. - DOD SMART Scholarship: I have navigated the specific requirements of the Department of Defense’s premier scholarship-for-service program. - Glenn T. Seaborg Graduate Research Fellow: I was one of 8–10 candidates nationwide selected by Los Alamos National Laboratory to conduct research in actinide science and radiochemistry. Technical Writing & National Lab Integration: My coaching philosophy focuses on the Technical Narrative—the ability to align specialized research with the broader mission of federal agencies. My background includes: - Mission-Oriented Research: Significant research experience at Los Alamos National Laboratory and the Naval Research Laboratory, where I have contributed to projects ranging from medical isotope purification to autonomous robotic swarms. - Publication Record: First-author publications in peer-reviewed journals such as Engineering Reports and Artificial Life and Robotics, ensuring that I can provide high-level editorial feedback on research statements. - Academic Excellence: A history of academic rigor, maintaining a 3.93 Ph.D. GPA at UT Austin and a 4.0 undergraduate GPA in Materials Science and Engineering from Georgia Tech. I specialize in helping applicants identify the "hook" in their research, ensuring that their Intellectual Merit and Broader Impacts (or agency-specific equivalents) are presented with clarity and professional authority.

I have completed three prestigious law fellowships, and am the recipient of several scholarships relating to law or international study. I am all too familiar with the financial burden law school and student abroad programs place on students, and I am well-equipped to help them find the best path to reaching their goals.

Applied to three top medical schools, got into all of them, and chose Stanford Medicine on a full financial package. Applied to one business school, Stanford GSB, and got in. I was also selected as a Knight-Hennessy Scholar. I wrote every part of my applications independently, with no external reviewers or help. Over the last five years, I’ve helped dozens of people get into top med schools, MBA programs, and win prestigious scholarships. I’ve worked closely with Stanford Medicine admissions in the past. While I’m not currently involved, have no say in admissions outcomes, and cannot guarantee acceptance, I can offer helpful behind-the-scenes insight. My goal is to help you and your story shine. I specialize in crafting compelling applications, telling powerful stories, guiding your recommenders to write standout letters, and building a clear strategy that makes your profile stand out. I’ve also won multiple grants, scholarships, and fellowships, and can help you navigate that process too. If you’re applying to med school, business school, or a major scholarship, I’d love to help you succeed.

As a Truman, Schwarzman, and Knight-Hennessy Scholar, I've pulled the rabbit out of my hat again, again, and again. I'm well familiar with what it takes to set yourself apart in a hyper-competitive applicant pool, having interviewed for every prestigious scholarship I've applied for--including the Rhodes, Soros, and Marshall. Now, I love helping others get those interviews, and turn those interviews into offers. Here's the secret: many of these scholarships are oddly formulaic in their applications, and I'm well-versed in what that "formula" looks like. Together, we can unlock your application's full potential and put your very best foot forward.
