Claire was great at giving direct, actionable feedback to help my story land in a way that felt both genuine and in line with what the admissions committee was looking for.

I worked with Geri on a "Ding Analysis" and she provided a thoughtful and thorough analysis of my application and walked through the analysis through a live call. I can't believe how knowledgeable Geri was about the application process and the strengths and weaknesses of my application. I also really appreciated the discussion on my career path and personal and professional growth

Amanda of course is extremely knowledgable and incredibly helpful, that we expected but her goodness as a person and mentor was an added bonus. Amanda was able to get to know our twins individually on such a deep level (which not an easy task), she helped the essays to reflect the kids' personalities perfectly. Over the past few months she cheered them on, built them up, saw all their strengths and abilities and reminded them how capable they are. Will be forever grateful for the time and energy she put into the applications but more importantly into our children! Thrilled to have our essays finished, but ending our weekly appointments with Amanda is bittersweet. BEST of the BEST! Thank you Amanda and thank you Leland!

Working with Angela was an incredible experience. She was always upfront about her schedule and delivered feedback exactly when she promised, which made it easy for me to plan around a full-time job. With an enginnering background, I didn't focus on writing in my day-to-day. What stood out most was Angela's feedback style. Instead of simply telling me to be specific or concise, she showed me through clear examples. That made it much easier to learn the level of detail and emotion needed. She also answered my random question about MBA programs. That made me feel supported throughout the process. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a coach who is reliable, insightful, and genuinely invested in their growth.

Eugene was INCREDIBLY helpful. He provided great insights every step of the way, from personal statement strategy to proofreading. He was always super responsive when I had little questions here and there. Could not have asked for a better coach!

Junius was extremely professional and knowledgeable and provided good suggestions on reworking my character and fitness addendums as well as my resume.

Michael is phenomenal, both in the how much he cares for each student as individuals but also in the sage insights he provides. He transformed my application by helping find a strong thread, sharpened my leadership vision and helped me communicate more effectively. Thanks to him I have a finalist interview in a few weeks. But regardless of the outcome, working with him has helped me improve exponentially as a writer and communicator both in the application context and beyond. He's a gem!
