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.

I have a wealth of experience and achievements that uniquely qualify me to be an outstanding coach for students aspiring to enter undergraduate schools. As a graduate of the University of Chicago, I not only completed my studies with distinction but also received recognition as the top female student. This accomplishment speaks to my commitment to academic excellence and sets me apart as a role model for aspiring students. Furthermore, I was awarded scholarships and granted admission to renowned institutions, including Berkeley and other Ivy League schools. These accomplishments serve as concrete examples of the paths that potential clients themselves may aspire to walk, fostering trust and inspiration. Beyond my academic achievements, I have a diverse range of experiences that make me an aspirational coach for students. Throughout high school, I balanced my studies with employment in the restaurant industry, displaying a strong work ethic and the ability to manage multiple responsibilities simultaneously. As the valedictorian of my high school, I self-studied and successfully completed 17 Advanced Placement (AP) courses, demonstrating my self-motivation and intellectual curiosity. Moreover, my leadership roles as the captain of the Speech and Debate team and an officer of the Model United Nations (MUN) team showcase my effective communication and teamwork skills, which are invaluable assets for navigating the college admissions process. In addition to my accomplishments, I have a unique perspective on the college admissions process. I have experienced the challenges of mental health struggles firsthand, having been hospitalized at multiple points during my educational journey. This personal journey allows me to empathize with the anxieties and pressures that students face during this crucial time. I underwent a transformative period of self-reflection and evaluation in college, ultimately emerging with a clearer understanding of my own purposes and goals. I am passionate about helping others embark on their college journeys with a similar perspective, guiding them to gain a deeper understanding of themselves and their aspirations. By sharing my experiences and resources, I aim to make college admissions more accessible and empower students to navigate this process successfully. By incorporating specific examples of achievements, highlighting unique experiences, and sharing aspirational stories, I aim to build trust and resonate with potential clients seeking guidance in their quest to enter undergraduate schools.
