Law School Admissions Consultants, Events, & Resources

Welcome to my profile! As an incoming J.D. candidate at Columbia Law School and an alum of Hamilton College with a focus in Government and Sociology, I bring a strong academic foundation and a wealth of practical experience to my coaching. My background includes internships in commercial litigation as well as strategic communications and local government. I have coached aspiring law students at elite liberal arts colleges and MIT, helping them navigate the complexities of law school admissions. Whether you need guidance on crafting compelling personal statements or strategizing your application, I'm here to help you achieve your law school goals. Let's connect and make your law school dreams a reality!

I am passionate about helping prospective law students see their strengths and achieve their admissions goals. As a first-generation college graduate with 9 years of law school admissions experience and over 10,000 reviewed applications, I understand the challenges students face throughout the application process. In 2010, I received a bachelor’s degree in history from California State University, Northridge. In 2013, I received a law degree from New York Law School. After law school, I worked as a staff attorney for the Northern Manhattan Improvement Corporation, where I represented survivors of intimate partner violence before the New York City Family Court and the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service. In 2016, I joined LMU Loyola Law School as an Assistant Director of Admissions. In 2023, I joined the UCLA School of Law as the Associate Director of Admissions & Diversity Initiatives. Now, I am a flight attendant for a major US Airline and still review law school applications. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling internationally, dinner parties with friends, and salsa dancing.

With 20+ years of professional experience across law, education, and leadership, I bring both firsthand experience and strategic insight to every stage of the law school journey. I earned my Juris Doctor from Columbia Law School and AB from Harvard University, scored in the 99th percentile on the LSAT, and was admitted to Harvard and Stanford Law before choosing Columbia—where I secured my Big Law offer as a 1L in Jones Day’s Paris office. As the founder of Nurimas Coaching, I’ve dedicated over 350 hours to supporting aspiring law students—first-gen, nontraditional, and transfer applicants alike—through LSAT preparation, application strategy, and career alignment. My specialty lies in helping candidates craft authentic, imaginative personal statements that reveal how they think and what drives them. Clients have written essays exploring a “third utopia” inspired by Indian science fiction, a Sherlock Holmes–style investigation into the heist of African languages as an introduction to how law can intentionally silence voices, and law as a language of displacement through its procedural rules—stories that marry creativity with intellectual rigor while remaining unmistakably personal. Beyond admissions, I help students study the law effectively, strengthen legal writing, and strategically position themselves for 1L and 2L opportunities. Whether your path leads to Big Law, public interest, or a federal clerkship, my coaching blends reflection with rigor—so you can approach law school with clarity, confidence, and a foundation for long-term success.

I I bring a nontraditional perspective to law school and business school admissions, having spent nearly eight years in the professional world and over five years living and working abroad in Dubai and across the Middle East before returning to graduate school. I earned both my B.A. and M.A. from Brown University and was accepted into nearly every law school I applied to, as well as multiple JD-MBA programs. I also earned multiple merit scholarships at every school I was accepted to, and successfully navigated the negotiating process to increase my package based on other offers. Alongside my academic and professional journey, I am a three-time Ironman 70.3 finisher and competed at the 2023 World Championships, which reflects my commitment to discipline, resilience, and long-term goal-setting. I am deeply passionate about helping others navigate ambitious transitions while maintaining balance, well-being, and a clear sense of purpose. Whether you are coming from a traditional educational/career path or considering a major pivot, I can help you craft a compelling story, strategically position your experience, and ace the application process with confidence. It is never too late to pursue a JD or MBA (or both), and I am here to help you make it happen!

Navigating the elite admissions landscape isn’t just about having a perfect transcript; it’s about narrative strategy and the 'Triple Threat' edge. My academic foundation is equally rigorous: I graduated from Cornell University with a 4.19 GPA and was inducted into Phi Beta Kappa as a junior. I don't just 'edit' essays; I help you architect a profile that stands out in a sea of high stats. I have mastered the art of the scholarship-winning narrative, securing hundreds of thousands of dollars in merit aid across the country’s top programs. I bring fresh, real-time insights from the current admissions cycle. I know exactly what it takes to get the 'Yes' from both Law admissions committees, and I am dedicated to helping you translate your unique experiences into an irresistible application.
