Welcome to my profile! As a recent dental school graduate, I know what it takes to stand out in the dental school application process. I was invited to 7 interviews, chose to attend 6, and was accepted to every single one. On top of that, I served on the Admissions Committee at the University of Maryland School of Dentistry, where I gained invaluable insight into what admissions teams are really looking for. Now as a practicing dentist, I use both my personal success and behind-the-scenes experience to coach pre-dental students. I’m passionate about helping future dentists refine their applications, master their interviews, and step confidently into the process knowing they have a winning strategy!

I think one way to develop into a great coach is having completed the pathway before. Having gone through the process of undergraduate preparation for taking the DAT, applying to dental school, interviewing, getting accepted, and then doing well in school to get into an oral and maxillofacial surgery residency program. I hope to share this with others!
