Medical School Admissions Coaches

Welcome to my profile! As a current MD/PhD student at Baylor College of Medicine and a member of the MSTP interviewing committee, I have a deep understanding of the medical school admissions process. My experience as an MCAT tutor with both Manhattan Prep and Inspira Education has equipped me with the skills to help students excel in their exams and applications. I have a strong background in genomics from Duke University and have conducted extensive research in neurodegenerative diseases, which allows me to guide aspiring medical students in crafting compelling applications that highlight their unique strengths. Whether you need help with your personal statement, interview preparation, or overall application strategy, I'm here to support you every step of the way. Let's work together to make your medical school dreams a reality!

I am an incoming first-year medical student at Harvard Medical School. This cycle, I have also earned acceptances at Duke, Cornell (Weill), Dartmouth (Geisel), Vanderbilt, Emory, UVA, and MCG, as well as interview invitations to Stanford, Hopkins, Penn, WashU, Mayo Clinic, UChicago, ISMMS, BU, UAB, and USF. I believe that the most important aspect of any application, beyond hard stats, is one's writing quality. Trained in literature in college, I have helped over 15 students with their personal statements while applying to medical school myself, the majority of whom have received several top-20 acceptances.

As an MD candidate and Knight-Hennessy Scholar at Stanford University School of Medicine, I offer firsthand insights into both the medical school and scholarship admissions processes. My diverse experiences—ranging from co-founding healthcare innovation initiatives, including a digital health startup, to conducting cutting-edge research at Harvard Medical School—provide me with a unique perspective to support aspiring medical students, whether they follow traditional or non-traditional pathways. I’d be thrilled to collaborate with you to craft a compelling application that highlights your strengths and sets you apart. Feel free to reach out anytime—I’m just an email or message away!

I am an MD-PhD candidate at Weill Cornell Medical College with a strong background in neuroscience and health sciences, having graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Southern California. My experience on admissions committees at both institutions has given me unique insights into the medical school admissions process. Over the years, I have successfully coached 13 aspiring medical students, helping them navigate the complexities of applications, interviews, and personal statements. Whether you're aiming for top-tier schools or need guidance on improving your application, I'm here to help you achieve your goals. Reach out to start your journey toward medical school success!

Accepted to every medical school I applied to (over 30 programs including Harvard, Stanford, John Hopkins, Upenn, UCSF, Yale, and more). Experience with interviews, personal statements, activities section in AAMCAS.

I am interested in helping guide aspiring Pre-med and medical students through the admissions/application process. My journey includes completing my MD at Tel Aviv University, Internal Medicine residency at UConn, Chief Resident at Greenwich Hospital, and currently as a Gastroenterology Fellow at Rochester Regional Health. I have also obtained a graduate certificate from UConn in health professions education while in residency. Moreover, I have worked with students, residents, and peers helping them navigate the complexities of both medical school and residency applications and interviews; in addition to helping tutor for the USMLE and ABIM exams.

I am a dual-degree MD/MBA student at a T5 Ivy League Medical school and Ivy League M7 business school, and I understand firsthand the complexity of applying to medical school, and to combined programs, while trying to build a compelling, mission-driven narrative. I have experience navigating the application process, refining personal statements and secondary essays, and aligning academic, research, and leadership experiences into a cohesive story that resonates with admissions committees. My training in both medicine and business also gives me a strong perspective on what MD/MBA programs look for: intellectual curiosity, leadership potential, systems thinking, and a clear vision for impact in healthcare. Beyond my own journey, I have worked extensively on research, healthcare innovation projects, and leadership initiatives that required communicating complex ideas clearly and persuasively, skills directly transferable to crafting strong applications. I coach students on how to articulate their motivations for medicine, demonstrate impact through their experiences, and position themselves effectively for MD and MD/MBA programs. My approach focuses on clarity, authenticity, and strategy, helping applicants present not just what they’ve done, but who they are and the kind of physician-leader they aim to become.

Having recently gone through the medical school application process, I am excited to mentor premedical students as they prepare their own applications. I was fortunate to receive over 15 acceptances at top programs—including Harvard, Penn, Columbia, Duke, Yale, and Vanderbilt—along with full-ride scholarship offers. I aim to translate these experiences into actionable, individualized advice for future applicants.

Gaining admission to medical school can be incredibly challenging. I am here to help you each step of the way, from crafting your AMCAS application, requesting letters of recommendation, perfecting your personal statement, completing secondaries, preparing for interviews, and ultimately selecting a school that aligns with your career goals. Prior to Leland, I have worked closely with several medical school applicants who have each gained admission to stellar programs.
