Law School Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

I have been working with law school candidates since before I even started law school myself! I take pride in the fact that I have helped numerous students shoot above their scores and receive admissions to top schools that were considered "reaches" for them such as Ivy League programs.

I grew up in South Tucson, Arizona, and I’m now a JD/PhD candidate at Yale Law School and the University of Oxford. For over ten years, I’ve helped students from first-gen, low-income, and immigrant backgrounds gain admission to top law schools and receive the most prestigious scholarships by turning their life stories into clear, compelling application narratives. As a Truman Scholar, Marshall Scholar, and Skadden Fellow, I’ve been through the fellowship and admissions process at the highest levels. I know how intimidating this process can feel, especially if you don’t come from a background where people “know how this works.” I’m here to help guide you through the admissions process and put forward the strongest version of your story.

I am a JD / MBA student at Harvard Law School and Harvard Business School. I have 5 years of professional experience in finance.

Welcome to my profile! As a Harvard Law School graduate and former Summer Associate at Skadden, I bring a unique blend of legal and financial expertise to my coaching. I have a deep understanding of what it takes to excel in law school applications and beyond. My experience allows me to provide comprehensive guidance on personal statements, resumes, and interview preparation.

I was awarded a Dean’s Award Scholarship at NYU School of Law, an outcome that reflects both my academic record and a carefully crafted, intentional law school application. Going through the admissions process myself gave me an insider’s understanding of how top law schools evaluate candidates—not just on numbers, but on clarity of purpose, narrative strength, and authenticity. I know firsthand how much strategy goes into standing out in an exceptionally competitive pool, from framing experiences effectively to communicating goals in a way that feels genuine and persuasive. I bring that experience into my coaching, helping applicants develop strong written materials and a confident application strategy tailored to their individual backgrounds. My approach is thoughtful, detail-driven, and highly collaborative, with the goal of helping each student put forward an application they truly feel proud of.

During my time at UCLA School of Law, I have earned several honors, including the UCLA Law Faculty Scholarship, the Adam Z. Rice Memorial Scholarship, the Erika J. Glazer Scholarship, the Greenberg Glusker Book Scholarship, the Kingdom Day Parade Scholarship, and the Langston Bar Association Scholarship (awarded twice). I was also selected for the 2024 Foundation for Advocacy, Inclusion & Resources (FAIR) Employee Justice Summer Clerkship and the 2024 Black Women Lawyers Association of Los Angeles Scholarship. My activities reflect my leadership and dedication to the legal community. I have served as a Student Liaison for the Los Angeles County Bar Association, Barristers/Young Attorneys, and held various leadership roles in the Black Law Students Association, including 1L Representative and Co-Chair. I have also been involved in the Critical Race Studies Specialization as an Erika Glazer Scholar, worked with the Labor and Economic Justice Clinic, and served as the Langston Bar Association’s Student Liaison and Law Student Outreach Committee Chair. As a member of the National Black Law Journal, I have contributed as both Outreach Editor and Chief Managing Editor. Additionally, I served as the 1L President of the Student Bar Association (SBA) and later as SBA Diversity Officer. My involvement extends to mentoring in the UCLA Law Fellows Program, serving as a Staff Member and Chief Diversity Editor on the UCLA Law Review, and working as a Tour Guide and Student Ambassador for the law school. I also participated in the Workers’ Rights Clinic and the UCLA Trial Team, where we were regional champions in the BLSA Constance Baker Motley Trial Competition. Furthermore, I have been active in the Entertainment Law Association as Events Chair and the Fashion and Beauty Law Association as Secretary of Communications.

Hi, I’m Dr. Erica—a writing coach, Fulbright Scholar, and former college professor. I specialize in guiding law school applicants through the high-stakes process of crafting personal statements, identity/diversity statements, addenda, and scholarship essays that clearly reflect who they are and why they want to pursue law. My clients have earned admission to top law schools, including the University of Michigan, Duke, UNC–Chapel Hill, George Washington University, and Pepperdine. Wearing the hats of coach, editor, project manager, and strategist, I help students translate complex experiences across academics, leadership, internships, and community involvement into clear and compelling narratives. I bring structure, clarity, and insight to what can often feel overwhelming, all while preserving your unique voice. I would be honored to offer expert, personalized guidance grounded in a deep understanding of the law school admissions landscape.

Law school admissions is the hardest it's ever been. Schools are not only looking for brilliant students, but they're also looking for people who have a clear passion for the law stemming from their life story. They want to be able to picture you succeeding at their campus and then in an impressive career for decades to come. I think the hardest part about applications as competitive as these is figuring out your story and finding the most compelling way to communicate it. I'm eager to help you do just that.

There's so much information on what a law school applicant should do, it can feel overwhelming. My goal has always been to provide superior information targeted to each student's unique circumstances. No questions are off limits, I make the path simple, comfortable and understanding. We can tackle anything or everything – from the minutiae of getting your recs/transcripts to LSAC to crafting your personal statements. Perhaps the best definition I’ve heard of a law school personal statement is that it’s a chance to tell your story. My goal is to capture a side of you that no one can deny is uniquely you. Law school trains you to be an attorney. But every student, every lawyer, is first and foremost a person – with a story. Your story informs your judgment. As an attorney, you hold tremendous power in society. Showing an admissions committee who you are through your story demonstrates how you’ll use that power responsibly. Our purpose is to tell your story. I believe every person has greatness inside of them and our goal is to show your greatness through your story.
