I’m a Harvard-educated admissions consultant who helps high-achieving students stand out. Over the past 13 years, I’ve guided more than 600 applicants to top U.S. colleges and graduate programs — including Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Stanford, MIT, and other Ivies — through strategic storytelling, school list curation, and essay coaching. My clients have earned acceptances to top-25 schools and, in many cases, significant merit scholarships — even without perfect grades or conventional résumés. If your family is aiming for a top-tier school — and wants strategic, honest, high-impact support — I’d love to connect.

Having coached students applying to elite and selective colleges across the US and Europe, my focus is on helping you craft the stories that help tell a compelling narrative about who you are behind the stats on your resume, application or transcripts. Helping students gain admission to the Ivy league, liberal arts programs, specialized degree programs (art, music, combined UG/GR programs)-- such as Brown, Penn, Harvard, Haverford, U of Chicago, Northwestern, and everything in between-- my focus is always personal, customized and designed to tell your unique story. As a first generation college student, I believe strongly that everyone should have the ability to access education! And, you should have a TRUE expert on your side-- one who has made admissions decisions, sat in committee rooms, managed waitlists, and crafted classes at the undergraduate and graduate level. Just getting a degree from an elite program doesn't teach you the nuances of the admissions process. As a career admissions professional, I want to give you the edge you need to get the dream school ADMIT you are seeking!
