College Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

Getting into a good college is more competitive than ever. It's also more expensive than ever. When I work with my students on their admissions statement, their list of dream and target schools, and their resumes and supplementals, I aim to give them realistic answers based on my experience and knowledge in the field, without leading them on or creating make-work. The goal is to have them on their way after no more than five sessions. Some of my expertise comes from collaborating with Rainbow EDU, known for serving high-end Los Angeles clients. I have worked with those clients and collaborated with the CEO of Rainbow on informational interviews for Forbes. I have been interviewed, alongside that CEO, by the New York Post with regard to financial aid, DEI and admissions. One of the greatest feelings I get is hearing admissions stories from clients!

With six years of hands-on experience as a BYU admissions application reader and admissions counselor, I bring insider knowledge of what truly makes an application great. I've evaluated hundreds of applications, so I’ve seen firsthand what works (and what doesn’t) when it comes to essays, activities, and overall presentation. I know this process can feel overwhelming, but I'm here to help students tell their story in a way that’s honest, impressive, and true to who they are!

I achieved the highest possible level of scholarship (Presidential Scholarship, "Thomas S. Monson Scholar") coming into undergraduate study at Brigham Young University (BYU), awarded to only 50 students in each incoming class of 7000+ students. I've since helped students of many backgrounds successfully apply to BYU, including international students.

Welcome to my profile! I'm a recent Boston College grad ('24), majoring in management with concentrations in Accounting & Finance. Having recently navigated the college admissions process, I'm very familiar with what's required to write strong essays (common app + supplementals), choose and prepare the right recommenders, and to help you submit compelling applications to top business / liberal arts programs. I'm also well-equipped to work with younger high school students in developing their profile as young leaders - I served as my high school's student body president and captained three varsity sports in my junior and senior years. Whether you're looking to build your overall profile or polish your applications to top schools, I'm here to help!

I’ve helped dozens of applicants get into BYU with an almost 100% success rate, and I know what it takes to turn a good application into a great one, especially for students who don’t fit the traditional mold. As a published author and Duke MBA graduate, I specialize in storytelling and strategic positioning, helping applicants connect the dots in their experiences and craft compelling, authentic essays that grab the attention of admissions committees. I’m especially passionate about working with nontraditional and underdog applicants, those who may not have the “perfect” background on paper but have incredible stories to tell. I take the time to really understand each applicant’s background, aspirations, and strengths, so we can present their best and most authentic case for admission. I was also admitted into BYU's highly competitive nursing program and received my MBA in healthcare management, so I also have a unique perspective and ability to help aspiring healthcare applicants find ways to tell their stories. If you're trying to get into nursing, medicine, surgery, research, or any other field in healthcare, please reach out!

Hello! I've gone through the application process for getting into school 4 times in the past decades. I've earned degrees from Stanford University (BS), Georgia Institute of Technology (MS), and Harvard University (MBA and MS). I especially enjoy writing and editing essays; I had my undergraduate essay for Stanford featured in a book titled "50 successful Stanford Application Essays : Write Your Way Into the College of your Choice", was a finalist for the Boothe Prize for Excellence in Freshman Writing, and scored in the 99% percentile for verbal reasoning on both the GMAT and SAT. I've also had the honor and privilege of serving as an Admissions Interview Volunteer for my alma mater for a few years. As a result of all of this experience, I believe that I have a deep understanding of the college admissions process and what it takes to get into a great university. I have a track record of helping students achieve their goals, whether it's through mentoring programs like Big Brothers Big Sisters or facilitating workshops with organizations like /dev/color. I've had experience as a teaching assistant at Stanford and done research work in graduate education so I have a unique perspective on the challenges students face and how to overcome them. Let's work together to create a personalized plan that will set you up for success.

Welcome to my profile! As a current fourth-year medical student at Tufts University School of Medicine, I have a strong background in mentoring and teaching, particularly in the college admissions process. During my time as president of the Pre-Medical Honor Society at Vanderbilt University, I helped peers and mentees navigate the medical school application process, from crafting their personal statements to preparing for the MCAT. At Tufts, I was president of our Tutoring Club, I worked closely with students from a local inner-city school. I helped them identify their goals and develop strategies to achieve them, whether it was SAT/ACT prep, brainstorming essay ideas, or editing secondary essays. This further honed my skills in refining personal statements and framing applications to highlight each student's unique strengths.

Your goals are my goals, so let's work together to make them a reality!
