College Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

Welcome to my profile! As a graduate of the United States Naval Academy, I bring a unique perspective to service academy admissions coaching. My later experience as a Navy Submarine Officer has honed my leadership and analytical skills, which I leverage to guide students through the service academy application process. I am currently pursuing a Master's at Stanford Graduate School of Business, further enriching my understanding of top-tier academic application environments. Whichever service academy you're aiming for, I'm here to help you craft a standout application. Let's work together to achieve your dreams of service!

Waitlisted at my dream school and worked the system to get admitted. Let me share my strategies with you and help you land your top choice!

Passionate about helping first-generation college students succeed by providing the necessary tools and tips to get ahead and navigate early career!

For nearly a decade, starting at the age of 22, I have helped students successfully navigate the UK university admissions process. From crafting compelling personal statements to excelling in interviews and understanding key questions, I guide applicants in selecting the right mix of universities based on their GCSE, A-level, or IB performance. I also specialise in supporting international students, helping them understand what is achievable within the UK system and positioning themselves for success. Having personally gained admission to top UK universities, including Cambridge, LSE, Warwick, and Exeter, I bring firsthand experience to the process. As a graduate of two leading UK institutions—Cambridge (MPhil) and Warwick (PPE)—and later, as an international student who successfully navigated the US admissions process to earn an MBA with Distinction from Harvard, I understand how to stand out in highly competitive applicant pools. My students have consistently secured places at prestigious universities such as Oxford, LSE, and UCL. With deep insight into the admissions system and a proven track record of success, I am committed to helping students unlock their potential and achieve their academic goals.

On paper, I am a Princeton college graduate, and a Stanford MBA graduate - as well as the less conventional qualification of being an admitted Ph.D. student in Anthropology at UC Irvine. More importantly to me, I grew up in a working class community, and applied to these programs with few paths tread ahead of me to set an example. For that reason, I'm passionate about working with students who are developing their voice and narrative in the application process - because with such competitive programs out there, anyone can often feel like an underdog. To date, most of my coaching has been with low-income students who have lacked extensive resources, so I am most supportive in framing narratives in ways that hint at the unique, if sometimes scrappy, qualifications of a student. I like to focus on the whole picture that an applicant brings to the table, from individual traits, to passions, to family background - alongside all the standard materials an application holds. Looking forward to working with some of you out there!

With a wealth of mentoring experience, I've guided numerous individuals in securing coveted spots in their desired undergraduate and graduate programs, as well as supporting job seekers in non-profit and development sectors. My expertise also extends to supporting college students. I'm eager to craft a tailored approach that hones in on your strengths, interests, and aspirations. Drawing from my own journey, I understand the obstacles and self-doubt that can arise, but I'm passionate about sharing insights that helped me overcome these challenges and reach my goals. Let's collaborate on your path to success!

I overcame a 5% acceptance rate to the UC Berkeley Haas School of Business as a community college transfer. Since my own admittance, I have been deeply involved in helping several transfer students make their own jump to a 4 year university. I have expertise in helping students craft a compelling personal narrative and package together an application that will catch the eye of an admissions team. I also came from a single mother background, and finding scholarships to supplement my financial aid was crucial for me to attend univeristy. I can share my tips and tricks for securing over $20k in independent scholarships, from the sourcing process to the actual application (which often includes an essay).

My approach to coaching is built on a first-hand understanding of what it takes to succeed at the world’s most prestigious institutions. Having recently graduated from Harvard, served as a teaching fellow, I have a "behind-the-curtain" view of how leadership and entrepreneurship are evaluated at the Ivy League level. I don't just help students get into college; I help them build a foundation for a lifetime of impact. I specialize in helping students connect their academic interests to the "Future of Work." I am deeply immersed in the world of venture capital and entrepreneurship, which allows me to help applicants identify and articulate their unique "value proposition." Whether you are navigating the complexities of the Common App or refining a personal narrative for Stanford or Tsinghua, I provide the strategic clarity and storytelling edge needed to make your application impossible to ignore. I am here to be your strategist and your sounding board, ensuring that your authentic voice shines through every essay and interview. Let’s turn your global background into your greatest competitive advantage.
