College Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

As a graduate of Harvard Business School and Columbia University, I bring a distinctive, well-rounded perspective to college admissions coaching. Throughout my own academic journey, I’ve had the privilege of working with top admissions advisors—first at Milton Academy, one of New England’s leading boarding schools, and later with an elite business school admissions coach. I’m excited to pass on the valuable insights I’ve gained from these experiences to help you navigate your own path. I’ve successfully guided students through the college application process, with three earning admission to their top-choice schools—including highly selective institutions like Wellesley (15% acceptance rate) and Pomona College (7% acceptance rate). These experiences have equipped me with the tools to help you craft a compelling and differentiated application. I’m passionate about helping students uncover their unique interests and strengths, and I offer personalized strategies to demystify the admissions process. Let’s work together to bring your story to life and help your application stand out.

As a second-generation college student from a small rural town and public school background, I know firsthand how to stand out in elite college admissions. My journey led to acceptances at some of the nation's most selective institutions, including Stanford, Princeton, Dartmouth, UPenn, Williams, and Emory, where I ultimately attended as a Robert W. Woodruff Scholar – the university's most prestigious merit award providing a full scholarship. What sets my coaching apart is my deep understanding that successful college admissions isn't just about grades and test scores – it's about crafting an authentic and compelling personal narrative. Coming from a rural public school background, I learned how to transform what might seem like limitations into powerful differentiators that caught the attention of admissions officers at both top research universities and liberal arts colleges. I'm passionate about helping students, especially those from non-traditional backgrounds, navigate the complex college admissions landscape. Whether you're aiming for Ivy League universities, elite liberal arts colleges, or selective scholarship programs, I can help you identify and articulate your unique story in a way that resonates with admissions committees. Having successfully walked this path myself, I bring both practical expertise and genuine empathy to help you achieve your college dreams.

Throughout my fifteen years with SBC Consulting, ten years as Chief Editor with IvyPath College Consulting, and four years with MBA Prep School, I’ve helped countless applicants gain admission to their dream schools. With a primary focus on undergraduate admissions, I help clients present themselves as uniquely individual and authentic in their fit for each specific school and as passionate and contributing future alumni. Nothing is more important than a client’s story that reveals not only life experience but also the specific challenges that shaped unique qualities of character, personality, talents, goals, and desire to impact both the local and wider community throughout life. My method of finding the best story is through a series of questions that include a client’s most inspiring people, favorite moments, defining moments, and greatest challenges, fears and successes. When we have those answers, we have the beginnings of a story.

As someone who navigated the college admissions process as a first-generation Indian-American student—ultimately earning a spot at UC Berkeley for EECS and later Harvard Business School’s 2+2 program—I know how daunting and confusing this journey can be. I didn’t have a roadmap handed to me. I had to figure it out the hard way—writing and rewriting essays, researching every program, and learning how to stand out without losing my voice. Since then, I’ve helped dozens of students craft authentic applications to top schools across the U.S., not just by editing essays, but by helping them find and shape their story. I also served as a mentor and fraternity president, where I supported younger students through the same challenges I once faced. Whether you're applying to an Ivy or a state school, I’m here to help you navigate this process with clarity, confidence, and a touch of creativity.

I’m a graduate of Middlebury College, where I studied Economics and Philosophy and graduated magna cum laude. Since then, I’ve built a career in private equity, with previous experience in consulting at L.E.K. and investing at Cambridge Associates and Summit Partners. Along the way, I’ve developed a deep understanding of what top colleges and employers look for. I work with students to craft standout personal statements, build cohesive application narratives, and shape extracurriculars into a compelling and authentic profile. I’ve helped students gain admission to Ivy League schools and top liberal arts colleges by helping them find their unique voice and strategy. I especially enjoy working with students who are multidimensional — balancing academics with music, sports, or other passions — and want their full story to shine through in the application process.
