College Admissions Coaches

Now a T-14 law student, I graduated with my BA summa cum laude in just 3 years. I am ready to meet students where they are, and find a school that is the perfect fit for them in terms of academics, culture, extracurriculars, location, and scholarship.

Hi! I am a Northwestern University grad with three degrees (BS Mechanical Engineering, BM Music Performance, and MS Mechanical Engineering), with an MBA from Harvard Business School. I've helped over 30+ students successfully navigate college admissions across different programs, majors, and goals. Let's connect so we can figure out how to make your journey successful!

As the first in my family to attend college who earned a full-ride scholarship to UC Berkeley, I deeply understand the stakes, challenges, and emotional weight of the college application process—especially for students navigating it without a roadmap. I've mentored students from underserved and immigrant communities, helping them find their voice, craft compelling narratives, and confidently choose schools that align with their goals and values. Whether you're applying to UCs, Ivy Leagues, or liberal arts colleges, I’ll support you not just in writing strong essays, but in believing that you belong. I know how transformative the right education can be—and I’m here to help you get there.

Welcome to my profile! As a dual degree holder in Marketing and English from the University of Maryland, College Park, I bring a unique blend of creativity and strategic thinking to the college admissions process. I've also been admitted to Harvard Business School's 2+2 deferred MBA program. My experience includes three on-campus internships and a teaching assistantship, which have equipped me with a deep understanding of what top universities seek in applicants. Currently, I work as a Marketing Specialist at Cisco, where I hone my skills in communication and strategy daily. I'm passionate about helping students craft compelling narratives that highlight their strengths and unique experiences. Let's work together to make your college application stand out!

I was accepted to all schools that I applied to including 5 Ivy League schools (100% acceptance rate)

How does a student with a 3.5 GPA make it to the top of the waitlist of a #1 program while those with higher GPAs were rejected? How does a student rejected from Yale REA receive multiple offers from top schools in the RD round and receive personal notes from Penn and Johns Hopkins admissions officers? How do other students get into multiple Ivy Leagues and have them offer to fly them to visit campus? They trust me to help them tell their stories. I help students get an edge in college admissions, college essays (Common App and supplementals), and career navigation while finding peace and joy. With 10+ years of experience in education my students achieve outstanding results and my knowledge, skills, and abilities make me one of the most sought after counselors on the market. Having trained with admissions directors from Stanford and worked directly with admissions officers from Columbia, Duke, UVA, and UMD, I have strong insights into how admissions decisions are made. As an Integral Coach®, I am trained to work with you in an ethical and empowering way. I have also coached directors and Presidents in higher education, which gives me further insight into colleges' priorities. My writing has also been widely recognized. The Duke English Director of Undergraduate Studies called my work "an academic achievement," and distinguished Harvard professors have placed my writing in the Top 4%. I have also been published on the Gates Foundation website and have been mentioned multiple times by a 4x #1 NYT Bestselling Author Marianne Williamson for my writing and insights into the human condition.

As a certified school counselor, I’ve had the privilege of helping over 500 students navigate the college admissions and financial aid process. I’ve worked with both domestic and international students, helping them gain admission to universities across the US, Canada, the UK, the Netherlands, Japan, Germany, and many other countries. I truly believe in building strong, supportive relationships with my students and their families. This allows me to better understand each student’s unique needs and expectations, ensuring we’re all on the same page throughout the process. I’ve specialized in college admissions, holding a post-graduate certificate from Columbia and certification as a College Admissions Specialist through the American School Counselors Association. I also have training in executive functioning skills—things like time management, study habits, and organization—and in career development strategies. This helps me guide students to discover their passions and strengths, which we can then shape into a strong college application profile. Having worked in high school guidance offices, I’m familiar with the details involved in creating transcripts, securing letters of recommendation, and gathering other required documents. I’m also well-versed in common school-based application systems like Naviance, Scoir, and Maia Learning. This knowledge allows me to help students navigate the specific requirements of their school districts, from applications to course selection. With my broad understanding of university programs, entry requirements worldwide, and a passion for helping students realize their full potential, I’m committed to working with you to create and implement a plan that sets you up for long-term success.

Hi, I'm Alice! I have extensive experience both writing and editing essays and working one-on-one with students as a mentor and in college prep, and would love to help you on your journey preparing your college application. In 2019, I graduated magna cum laude from Princeton University with a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy and minors in Journalism and Humanistic Studies. My thesis, which was part philosophy and part journalism, was awarded the McCosh Prize for the best undergraduate thesis in any area of philosophy. At Princeton, I did extensive audio journalism, reporting, and art, including illustration and design for the weekly newspaper. I'm now working part-time towards my Master of Public Administration in Sustainability at Middlebury Institute of International Studies. Since graduating, I've lived in both Chicago and New York to work in impact, housing, and community development finance, and spent two years with Crimson Education to help students find a balanced spread of extracurricular activities, create leadership projects, and pursue reading and enrichment studies to suit their particular academic interests. I also serve as a mentor for recent Princeton graduates and current students working in public service, and each year, I interview high school students applying to Princeton as a volunteer for the Alumni Schools Committee. I love working one-on-one with students to help them find and pursue their passions, and I'm skilled at helping others find the narrative thread in their story. I treat others' writing with care; I'm a thorough and supportive editor who is committed to helping you find your voice and tell your story in college applications. Please reach out if you might like to work together this summer!
