I helped clients gain acceptance to top-tier universities, including Cornell, NYU, Brown, UChicago, UPenn, Harvard Business, Claremont McKenna, Amherst, Tufts, Middlebury, Bard, and others. Applying to schools can be overwhelming, but, with the right mentorship, there are ways of making this experience as rewarding as possible. It is, after all, an opportunity to master oneself through writing, all the while becoming better at it.

After graduating with both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees, working for UNC Office of Undergraduate Admissions, and working as a College Admissions Consultant, I am well-versed in the world of college admissions. I've helped students with everything from choosing classes and extracurriculars, standardized test preparation, and school selections to editing their Common App Essay/personal statements, helping formulate their application, and interview preparation.

My experience as a varsity Track & Field athlete and involvement in various student organizations at Stanford have equipped me with the insights needed to help students craft compelling stories and applications that stand out. Before making my decision to attend Stanford, I visited and communicated extensively with Harvard and Princeton. This firsthand knowledge allows me to offer you expert guidance in finding the school that best suits your needs academically and athletically. Over the years, I've successfully coached international students, guiding them through the intricacies of the college admissions process and helping them gain acceptance to their dream schools.

In today's competitive college admissions landscape, I’m here to help you stand out. I know what it takes to succeed in elite admissions processes. I went to college at Washington University in St. Louis and subsequently worked at BlackRock, the world’s largest financial asset manager with $10.6 trillion in assets under management. After five transformative years at BlackRock, I pivoted into the psychology field, landing offers from selective doctoral programs at Boston College, Fordham University, and Yeshiva University, the latter of which I’m attending to earn a doctoral degree in clinical psychology. As a career coach, I’ve helped people land top scholarships, fellowships, internships, jobs, and graduate school acceptances. At BlackRock, I served on the admissions committee for the firm’s internship and analyst programs, where I reviewed resumes, conducted interviews, and evaluated candidates. My experience as an applicant, coach, and admissions committee member has taught me that standing out in competitive application processes requires telling one’s story in a compelling, authentic, and memorable way. As your coach, I will help you share your personal story with your unique voice so that your application differentiates you from the pack.

Applied to and was admitted to several UC and Ivy League schools during my undergraduate application process in 2019. I ultimately attended a local state school due to receiving a full scholarship and wanting to live locally. Before graduating from my undergraduate university, I again received admission to top graduate programs at schools such as UPenn, MIT, and Yale. I have had experience coaching/tutoring friends and family for years and love helping others through the platform Leland has built! Feel free to reach out with questions or for an intro call anytime. I also coach for deferred MBA admissions and management consulting on Leland.

Hello! I've gone through the application process for getting into school 4 times in the past decades. I've earned degrees from Stanford University (BS), Georgia Institute of Technology (MS), and Harvard University (MBA and MS). I especially enjoy writing and editing essays; I had my undergraduate essay for Stanford featured in a book titled "50 successful Stanford Application Essays : Write Your Way Into the College of your Choice", was a finalist for the Boothe Prize for Excellence in Freshman Writing, and scored in the 99% percentile for verbal reasoning on both the GMAT and SAT. I've also had the honor and privilege of serving as an Admissions Interview Volunteer for my alma mater for a few years. As a result of all of this experience, I believe that I have a deep understanding of the college admissions process and what it takes to get into a great university. I have a track record of helping students achieve their goals, whether it's through mentoring programs like Big Brothers Big Sisters or facilitating workshops with organizations like /dev/color. I've had experience as a teaching assistant at Stanford and done research work in graduate education so I have a unique perspective on the challenges students face and how to overcome them. Let's work together to create a personalized plan that will set you up for success.
