Master’s Programs Admissions Coaches

I was admitted to a 3 Master's of Biomedical Science programs for the purpose of strengthening my application to dental school: Rutgers, Nova Southeastern, and Roseman.

Getting into a top master's program isn't just about your credentials. It's about showing a clear sense of direction—who you are, what you want to do, and why this graduate program is the right place to do it. Your personal statement and application essays are your chance to make that case compellingly. And frankly, the stakes couldn't be higher. I'm Dr. Erica, an admissions coach, Fulbright Scholar, and publisher author with Manchester University Press. I obtained my Ph.D. from UNC-Chapel Hill, where I held the university's most prestigious doctoral fellowship. I work with master's program applicants at every stage—from brainstorming and drafting to final polish. My clients have earned admission to highly prestigious programs, including the University of Chicago, the London School of Economics, Wake Forest University, and Duke. I help with: • Personal statements • Statements of purpose • Application essays • CVs/resumes Whether you're staring at a blank page or refining a near-final draft, I'll help you translate your experiences—across academics, professional work, research, and leadership—into a clear, compelling narrative that helps you stand out.

I hold a master’s degree in Organizational Psychology from Columbia University and now work professionally in the field designing and facilitating leadership development programs, leading initiatives, and coaching professionals in complex organizational environments. Because of that experience, I understand both sides of the equation: what top programs are looking for in applicants and how the degree actually translates into real-world career opportunities. I help applicants clarify their story, articulate why organizational psychology is the right path for them, and present their experiences in a way that stands out to admissions committees. My goal is to help you move beyond generic applications and create a clear, compelling narrative about who you are, what you want to do, and why this degree is the next logical step.
