Having graduated from Harvard Medical School, I have been through the application process and learned what was needed to be successful. I have a comprehensive understanding of what medical schools and looking for and can be of assistance to help students stand out. My interactions have showed me the types of experiences that are beneficial to applicants and how to frame them when submitting an application for the highest chance of success.

With seven years of experience in med school admissions consulting, I’ve helped over 100 students get into top schools like Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Columbia, Penn, and Cornell. As a Yale and Harvard alum with admissions committee experience, I bring firsthand knowledge of how the process works. I’m also on faculty at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, where I mentor medical students and have an even deeper understanding of what it takes to succeed. I’d love to help you create an application that shows off your strengths and stands out. Let’s connect and get started!

As a recent matriculate to medical school, the application process is still very fresh in mind. Having applied to schools in both the US and Canada, with several interviews and acceptances at top 15 schools, I bring an insider's perspective that will help you stand out at the most competitive schools in North America. I consider my application to be fairly unique, in that my extracurriculars weren't necessarily the "traditional" pre-med activities. Often times, this is what worries people - "I don't know if med schools will care that I did X." Low and behold, that uniqueness may just be what catches and admissions officer's attention and leads to an interview invitation. This is just a small example of how expert guidance can help you leverage your strengths and pique the interest of the admissions committees at schools across the country. With individualized support through every step of the process, from school selection and essay planning all the way through interview prep and offer acceptance, I hope to help you land an acceptance to your top choice of schools and officially launch your career in medicine.

I went through the arduous process of preparing primary and secondary applications for medical school, along with all of the accompanying essays. I ended up with a high number of interviews and acceptances. While deciding which program to join, I was able to further explore the strengths and weaknesses of my application with admissions committee members at a number of schools to understand what was appealing to them. I now sit as an executive member of the UCLA Medical School Council and Committee, which is involved in major medical school decision processes including admissions. Over the years of coaching applicants through this long process, I've observed what works and what doesn't, both on paper and off.

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!
