Hi everyone! 👋 I’m so glad you’re here. I bring over 10 years of experience at the crossroads of academia, technology, and global careers, and I’ve had the privilege of studying and working with institutions such as Stanford and Cornell University. Along the way, I’ve supported students and professionals from all over the world as they navigate competitive master’s programs in AI, computer science, data, and interdisciplinary technology fields. What truly excites me about coaching is helping people find and articulate their story. I’ve worked closely with researchers, founders, and executives, which gives me a clear view of what top programs are really looking for: intellectual curiosity, clarity of purpose, and the ability to turn learning into impact. My approach is thoughtful, structured, and encouraging; we’ll work together to shape a strong narrative, highlight your unique strengths, and help you feel confident at every step of the application process. My goal isn’t just to help you get admitted. It’s to help you choose the right program, show up as yourself, and start this next chapter with clarity and confidence.

For nearly 15 years, I served as Director of Admissions and Graduate Programs at Princeton University's School of Public and International Affairs (SPIA), overseeing the admissions and recruitment process for the Master in Public Affairs (MPA), Master in Public Policy (MPP), and Ph.D. programs.
