I’m an MIT alum (Class of 2014), was also accepted to Harvard, and previously served as an interviewer for MIT undergraduate admissions. Beyond admissions strategy, I understand firsthand the academic intensity, pressure, and identity shifts that come with entering highly competitive environments. As a certified coach (CPCC, ACC) with a background in strategy consulting, I support students not just in presenting themselves authentically during admissions, but also in building confidence, self-awareness, and resilience as they transition into college. My approach helps students not only stand out in the interview but also clarify what motivates them, manage pressure and expectations, and step into the next chapter with intention rather than fear.
