College Admissions Coaches

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!

As a current Harvard student studying Government and Statistics, I’ve mentored 18 students, many from underrepresented or international backgrounds, through successful college applications to top U.S. universities, including Harvard, NYU, and UCLA.

Whether you’re aiming for Ivy League schools, looking to highlight unique extracurriculars, or need help getting started, I’ll bring insider insight, strategic guidance, and personal support to help you reach your goals.

I was accepted or waitlisted to all four schools to which I applied (BYU, UCLA, Caltech, and Stanford). My most recent consulting experience has been for master's programs (mainly MBA), but my writing skills and strategic thinking can help candidates apply to their dream undergraduate programs.

Welcome to my profile! I graduated from Cornell University and am an incoming law student at the University of Chicago Law. I was also admitted to Columbia Business School as a deferred applicant. I bring a unique perspective to college admissions coaching. My academic journey, marked by a 4.193 GPA and recognition such as Phi Beta Kappa and Magna Cum Laude, has equipped me with the skills to guide students through the complexities of the application processes. Having coached dozens of students, I am passionate about helping students craft compelling applications that highlight their strengths and unique stories.

As a USC Marshall School of Business graduate and former investment banking analyst at a top Wall Street firm, I know what it takes to stand out in a competitive admissions process. I’ve been on both sides of the table — not only as an applicant who earned offers from top programs, but also as someone who’s evaluated talent firsthand while serving on my firm’s campus recruiting team. I understand what decision-makers look for and how to present your story in a way that resonates. What sets me apart is my ability to blend storytelling with strategy. I draw on my background in finance and mentorship to help students highlight leadership, impact, and growth with clarity and confidence.

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.

I've spent over a decade on every side of the admissions table — as a Harvard PhD who taught over 30 courses to more than 1,000 undergraduates, reviewed admissions applications, and served as a Senior Advisor on the Tutorial and Advising Board. I've worked alongside Nobel-winning faculty and nationally recognized writers, and I know exactly what the candidacy profile of a student who gets in looks like. More than 300 of my students have been admitted to Stanford, Princeton, Brown, Vanderbilt, Cornell, NYU, UC Berkeley, UChicago, and many more. My approach is personal and narrative-driven. I help students uncover what makes them distinctive and build a cohesive application story — from Common App essays to activity lists to interview prep. I speak five languages and work especially well with international and multilingual families navigating an unfamiliar system.

I'm currently a Stanford MBA (where I'm the Student Body Co-President), and have 5+years of college admissions coaching experience. Before GSB, I spent time as a teacher (focusing on essay writing and story telling) and as a management consultant. Over the years working in admissions consulting, I have helped students based in the US, Hong Kong, China, and Singapore successfully apply to school. I'm here to help you create a stellar MBA application that can launch you into a top program in a way that tells your authentic story. As a coach, I bring a structured, honest, and tailored approach to the application process. Beyond my teaching experience, I also have a BA in Economics, Psychology, and Creative Writing from Northwestern University through which I learned how to help people navigate their truest stories. I'm particularly experienced at helping prospective MBAs figure out how the MBA would play into their larger goals as people and as professionals. No matter how untraditional the path, I'm skilled at helping applicants frame their diverse experiences in a compelling and cohesive way that resonates with admissions committees. If you want a partner in this process, I'm your guide.
