Traditional Law School Admissions Coaches

Experienced law school admissions counselor with extensive track record of success, including acceptances to all T14 schools. Extensive experience working with students from China and Korea, students with learning disabilities, and anxiety.

Welcome to my profile! With a Juris Doctor from the University of Sydney and extensive experience as a lawyer at top firms like Kirkland & Ellis and Gilbert + Tobin, I bring a wealth of knowledge to the law school admissions process. As a former Faculty Board Member of the Sydney University Law Society, I understand the nuances of what top law schools are looking for in applicants. My background in commercial strategy and my role as a strategy facilitator at London Business School have honed my ability to craft compelling narratives and strategic applications. Whether you're aiming for a top-tier law school or need guidance on your personal statement and interviews, I'm here to help you succeed. Let's connect and strategise your path to law school success!

I’m a former Law Review editor and a federal judicial law clerk with firsthand experience navigating the T14 admissions process and the transfer process, having started at Berkeley before transferring to HLS. I’ve worked at top tech companies and with reputable law firms, giving me deep insight into what law schools and employers are looking for in their candidates. Whether you're aiming for Harvard, Yale, Stanford, or another T14—or considering the transfer route, I’ll help you craft a compelling application, position your unique story, and maximize your chances of admission and scholarships. I’ve coached multiple applicants into top law schools, securing substantial scholarships, and I can help you do the same. If you want a no-BS, results-driven approach to law school admissions, let’s work together!

I bring a unique perspective to law school admissions having served as the Director of Admissions at Stanford Graduate School of Education, where I reviewed joint degree applications including JD/MA programs. During my tenure at Stanford, I evaluated thousands of graduate applications annually and gained deep insight into how elite institutions assess candidates pursuing legal education combined with other disciplines.

I’m a first-year law student who has recently navigated the law school admissions process and successfully helped friends do the same. I know firsthand how overwhelming the LSAT and application process can be and how difficult it is to raise your score while managing anxiety and pressure. Through targeted strategies and mindset shifts, I was able to raise my LSAT score to a near-perfect range, and I now help others do the same. My approach focuses on helping you to understand how the test works, not just memorizing tactics, so you can see consistent score improvements with confidence. Beyond the LSAT, I help applicants craft compelling, authentic personal statements that stand out regardless of numbers. I also offer resume editing and strategy: I recently received BigLaw offers in New York City before my 1L grades were released, an outcome I strongly attribute to how my resume told a clear and compelling story. If you’re looking for personalized guidance from someone who’s just been through the process and understands both the strategy and the stress, I’d love to work with you.

I have reviewed hundreds of law school applications, sat on the admissions committee and was part of the decision making team.

I'm a Stanford Law School grad working in business operations at an edtech startup. I applied to law school while I was an undergrad studying electrical engineering and was fortunate enough to be admitted to a number of top law schools, including Stanford, Yale, Harvard, and Chicago (where I was offered the Rubenstein scholarship). I'd love to help you with your law school application process, from building an application strategy all the way through the happy (and stressful!) decision of where to attend. If you're coming from a technical background, or you're interested in pursuing a joint degree program, my experience will be especially useful — but I work with all kinds of applicants.

As a two-time member of the Georgetown Law Admissions Committee with 10 years of experience as an admissions consultant, I know what law schools are looking for and how to help students present themselves positively and persuasively to the admissions committee. I am an expert educator and editor with experience teaching college students and professionals in one-on-one and group settings with specific emphasis in writing and prelaw skills. My experience as an attorney at the #1 intellectual property litigation group in the country, as well as in the federal government and small to medium-sized firms, has provided me with insider knowledge about the skills and qualities legal employers are seeking. My former students have graduated from some of the top law schools, including Columbia, Georgetown, and George Washington, and have continued on to federal clerkships, law firms, public interest, and government roles. I look forward to helping you ace your law school applications and excel in your legal career!

I grew up in Raleigh, North Carolina, and earned my degrees in French and Political Science from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. I went on to pursue my Juris Doctor (JD) at Duke University School of Law — an experience that deepened my love for the study of law. While I briefly worked in the legal field, I quickly realized that what truly inspired me wasn’t practicing law — it was helping others find their path through education. That realization led me to pivot into the field of international higher education, where I discovered my passion for mentoring students through the admissions process. For over 15 years, I’ve worked in university admissions at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. As a former admissions officer, I’ve reviewed hundreds of applications from students around the world. My experience includes serving as the Assistant Director of Recruitment and Admissions at the University of Chicago Booth Executive MBA program, where I gained firsthand insight into what top-tier programs look for in standout candidates. I spent over a decade living in Hong Kong, where I worked with both local and international students on applications to law school, MBA, Master’s, and undergraduate programs. Now based back in Raleigh, I continue to support students worldwide as they pursue their academic and professional goals. Whether you're applying to T14 law schools or exploring a specialized legal program, I bring a unique blend of legal training, admissions experience, and global perspective to help you craft a compelling, authentic application.

⭐️ Named one of Leland's top law school coaches for 2025: https://start.joinleland.com/top-coach-2026/law-school 🎓 I get it: I recently underwent both the US and UK law school admissions process (spring 2023), with successful results in both. I was admitted to NYU (matriculated), Columbia, Georgetown, and GW, and was waitlisted at Yale. I was also accepted to the University of Law in London and BPP (and can share why I opted for the US over UK system). I can help clients craft their law school narrative in the context of a rapidly evolving admissions system. I am available to review applicants' essays, provide interview strategy tips, and share guidance on the financial aid process. 👨🏾‍💼 I've succeeded in the job market: I'm familiar with the BigLaw recruiting process for 1Ls, which I successfully underwent in summer 2024, with early offers from 6 of the 8 BigLaw firms to which I applied. Last summer, I interned at two US law firms (AmLaw 100) with strong international litigation and arbitration practices and will refer to one of these firms after graduation. I can also provide interview tips and strategies on how to leverage your law school's OCS.
