Law School Admissions Consultants

Experienced law school admissions counselor with extensive track record of success, including acceptances to all T14 schools. Extensive experience working with students from China and Korea, students with learning disabilities, and anxiety.

As a former Associate Director of Admissions at Stanford Law School, I have read thousands of applications front to back, and have a deep understanding of what top law schools are looking for. It is more than just trying to 'stand out' from the crowd. You will need to craft a highly compelling story so that you convince the admissions committee that you have amazing potential as a law student, AND you will make a valuable contribution. I have many years of experience helping prospective law students gain admission to their dream schools - even those with less than optimal GPAs and LSAT scores. I am a strong believer that an applicant is more than the numbers - but the essay is the make-it or break-it factor. I will be your thought partner and supportive advisor from start to finish. I have expertise developing individualized time lines, school lists, letters of recommendation, resumes, essays (required and optional), character and fitness paragraphs, managing waitlists and even negotiating financial aid awards. I am here to answer any question that may come up throughout this time consuming and oftentimes overwhelming process, and we will have fun working together. You can do this, and I am here to help!

I have advised hundreds and hundreds of law school applicants over an almost twenty year period. I am an expert in law school admissions and have also published a book and a nationwide column about it. Many applicants that I have advised have been admitted to their top choice of law schools. Some of my former students have also received up to full scholarships to law school. I am also an expert on the subject of legal careers, as well as alternative legal careers. In addition I have taught several courses for students planning to apply to law school. I am a graduate of Brown University and Boston College Law School.

Welcome to my profile! I am currently pursuing a JD/MBA from The Wharton School (UPenn) and the University of Pennsylvania Law School. With my unique background in both law and business, I bring a comprehensive perspective to help aspiring law students navigate the admissions process. Although I am new to formal/paid coaching, I have consulted with dozens of candidates on the application process. Personally, I was accepted to a majority of the T-14 law schools (including a significant merit-based scholarship at UPenn) and currently hold a 3.9 GPA in the law school classroom. My experiences as a Summer Associate at Latham & Watkins and a Law Clerk at the United States Department of Justice have provided me with insights into the legal profession—I hope to leverage these insights and more to help you craft your story. I aim to provide honest, straightforward advice rooted in direct experience, ensuring you're prepared for the rigorous journey ahead in law education. Let's connect and discuss how I can support you in achieving your goals!

As a first generation professional, I understand how stressful navigating the law school admissions process can be for applicants. After a post-graduation public interest fellowship and some time in big law, I spent more than a decade working at two T14 law schools—the University of Chicago and Northwestern Pritzker School of Law. My time working in legal education in both recruiting and student affairs means I am well-versed in how best to navigate the admissions process and select and succeed in the law school that is right for you. I am particularly passionate about working with those first generation professionals who are navigating the admissions process and with those from backgrounds historically excluded from the legal profession.

Does the prospect of applying to law school feel frustrating, overwhelming, or just too complicated? Then I'm your coach! While I just started my own law school admissions consulting business in 2025, I have nearly a decade of experience in law school admissions with eight of those years being at the University of Houston Law Center. I have read thousands of law school applications and can help you put your best foot forward in the application process. I will work with just about anyone, but I specialize in helping individuals from underrepresented communities find their perfect law school fit and those who aren't necessarily aiming for Ivy Leagues/T-14/T-30 schools (but if that's your goal, I'm more than happy to help). My expertise extends to anyone aiming to navigate the complex admissions landscape. Law school admissions is competitive, but there's a school out there for everyone. Let's connect and clear your path to law school success!

As a recent Stanford Law School graduate and Knight-Hennessy Scholar, I bring a wealth of experience and insight into the law school admissions process. I have successfully coached over a dozen aspiring law students, helping them navigate the complexities of applications and secure spots at top law schools. I've continued to work with many of my admittees as they enter law school, select courses, apply for internships, navigate the job search, and secure federal clerkships. Whether you need guidance on crafting compelling personal statements, strategizing your application, or want to maximize your law school experience and future job opportunities -- I'm here to help you make your goals a reality. Let's connect! What's the process like? I like to do a 15-30 minute meeting up front to understand your background, goals, and priorities. We identify tasks to accomplish and set deadlines for each, taking a step-by-step approach that feels manageable. Clients can send written drafts anytime, and I provide written feedback within 48 hours. I'm always available to answer pop-up questions and support. We schedule follow-up meetings as needed.

With a strong academic foundation in political science and environmental studies from UC Berkeley, I bring a unique and strategic perspective to law school admissions coaching. My professional experience in communications and government has shaped me into a strong idea generator, writer, and editor. These skills are critical for crafting standout applications. Whether you need help with personal statements, interview preparation, or overall application strategy, I’m here to help you navigate the path to your dream law school. Let’s connect and bring your law school goals to life!

Having navigated the law school admissions process early through Harvard Law School’s Junior Deferral Program, I understand firsthand what I wish I had known from the start. My approach goes beyond medians and numbers-driven strategies, focusing instead on helping applicants stand out through the power of their unique story. I provide guidance on every aspect of the application—from crafting a strategic narrative and strengthening resumes and letters of recommendation to navigating financial aid and refining essays. I’ll support you through every step of the process, ensuring you submit the strongest possible application to achieve your law school goals.
