Dental School Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

Recieved interview invitations to the majority of school I applied to and was accepted into most of those. Assisted in interview days for prospective Utah dental students. Currently serving in leadership positions that have provided me access to admissions committee members that have explained what they look for in potential candidates. Current chief resident in my orthodontic residency. I have spent numerous hours learning what admissions committees of all types look for. When I applied I received notable interview invites for 16 residencies and hope to share this knowledge with other applicants.

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!
