Experienced Admission’s Coach and Current MD-PhD Student at UPenn Med
Welcome to my profile! As a recent matriculant of the University of Pennsylvania’s Perelman School of Medicine, the application process is fresh in my mind and I am here to help! Just last year, I received interview invitations from more than 18 elite medical and graduate programs and acceptances from the likes of Harvard, Yale, Stanford, and more. For most institutions, MD-PhD applicants are evaluated separately by the medical and graduate school, meaning that despite my specialized track I have ample credentials to help both medical and graduate students as they undergo this rigorous process. As a first generation college student, I have also worked especially closely with my Alma matar’s Ivy League career services department, providing me with additional professional knowledge that I can share with you! I have also serviced as an interviewer both for the University of Pennsylvania undergraduate early and regular decision cycle and Perelman School of Medicine’s applicants. I currently conduct volunteer career services counseling for first generation low income students at Penn interested pursuing medicine and biomedical research. I mentor students at all stages from sophomore to gap year. My most recent class of mentees have received interviews at Harvard, Yale, Washington University in Saint Louis, Emory, and more. Whether you're a top student aiming for a competitive program or a second-time applicant with below-average GPAs and MCATs, I have the expertise to guide you through the evolving medical school admissions landscape. From personal statements and secondaries to letters of recommendation and school lists, I provide comprehensive coaching tailored to your unique strengths and goals. Let's work together to create a compelling application package that showcases an authentic picture of who you are and maximizes your chances of success. Reach out to me today and let's get started!
