About

I want to help you tell your story to selection committees---not turning you into someone you're not, but articulating the version of your story that will compel selectors to think that they would be losing out if you weren't selected. I'm flexible to work with you in whatever way will best serve you, from high-level application strategy and essay reviews to interview preparation and practice.

Why do I coach?

I'm incredibly grateful for the mentors and advocates who helped me get to where I am, and I want to pay it forward. I'm especially passionate about helping students interested in public service. Prestigious fellowships open up incredible opportunities for impact, and if that's something that you want to have, I'm here to help you unlock it.
