Hi! I am a dental school and residency admissions coach with a passion for helping aspiring dentists achieve their dreams. I graduated cum laude from Harvard School of Dental Medicine with a Doctor of Dental Medicine (DMD) degree, where was induced into the Omicron Kappa Upsilon dental honor society and received the Pierre Fauchard Academy Senior Dental Student Certificate of Merit award for contributions to the dental literature and a Harvard Medical School/Harvard School of Dental Medicine Dean's Community Service Award. Straight out of dental school, I was fortunate to gain admission to the highly regarded University of Pennsylvania School of Dental Medicine Endodontics residency program. While I greatly enjoyed my experience and time at Penn Endo in the fall of 2023, I realized that my true passion lies in teaching, coaching, research and public health, which I aim to focus my career on. Therefore, I made the difficult decision to leave the program to shift my career and follow my passions. In the past, I have successfully guided students through the application process, helping them gain acceptance to top dental schools. Whether you need assistance with personal statements, interviews, or navigating the admissions landscape, I am here to provide you with personalized guidance and support.

Seasoned pre-dental coach and mentor. After mentoring and guiding many pre-dental students throughout my dental school years, I've created a handful of PDFs and documents that I can provide you with in addition to my live attention. My first experience with the application process was my own, where I was successfully accepted to my top 3 programs that I wanted to attend. Since then, I've spent my time, both in-person and on Instagram, answering the questions of pre-dental students and providing them with the tools they need to become a high-quality applicant - the student that admissions committees are looking for!

During my 3rd and 4th years of college, COVID-19 years, I engaged in countless hours of shadowing, service, and studying for the DAT. Additionally, my wife and I were lucky to have a child born two months before finals in the second to last semester of our undergraduate studies. With my wife’s support, I was able to surpass my goal on the DAT and we both graduated from BYU-Provo within 4 years of starting. I applied to 12 dental schools, interviewed at six, and was accepted and offered a position at all six schools beginning in the fall of 2022. I am currently a first-year dental student attending the University of Utah School of Dentistry. I have founded a Public Health Club and am a member of the Pediatrics and Business clubs among participating in a handful of others. Additionally, I am currently working on becoming an AHEC Scholar and am working to figure out a schedule to graduate with a dual degree MPH/DDS with the Dean of my school.

As a current dental student at The Ohio State University, I have been through the rigorous path of dental school applications. Applying during the mess of COVID I received interviews and acceptances from all of the schools I had applied at ultimately putting me at The Ohio State University. Starting on the journey without any prior family or friends in dental school I had to learn how to do it all and this forced me to find mentors and students along the way.. with getting assistance from so many others I would love to be that source for someone else.
