I excelled in both undergrad and graduate school. I was accepted to graduate school my first year of applying. (1 of 50 students in the class out of >1000 applicants) I received invitations to interview at 5 different graduate schools. (RMUoHP, UofU, Pacific U, Western, AT Still and interest from UC Davis) I know what it takes to make an applicant stand out from other applicants by making sure their application is strong. I can give good perspectives and suggestions on personal statements required for the application process. I consider myself a good interviewer and can give pointers and advice on how to best present oneself.

I am a board-certified Physician Assistant and I want to help aspiring PAs navigate what can be a daunting application process. I graduated from PA school in December 2023, passed the PANCE in January 2024, and recently started my role as a primary care PA in California. After graduating in microbiology from Brigham Young University, I interviewed with many PA programs and chose to attend PA school at South College Atlanta. I was also on both the President’s list and Dean’s list multiple quarters throughout PA school. Prior to PA school I worked in a variety of clinical roles and settings, so I have a breadth of experience to draw on in assessing personal statements, activity summaries, and resumes.

This is a new category I am working in with clients at a steep discount from my regular hourly rate. Feel free to reach out, or stay tuned for updates here as I work through apps with my first couple of PA program clients!
