Having worked in UC Berkeley admissions, I've evaluated thousands of first-year applications and seen what stories stand out among the crowd, and that's a personal, cohesive, and authentic application narrative. With a Master of Education from USC, I transform each student's application into an opportunity to stop college pleasing, which leads to generic applications, and showcase their authenticity to admission officers.

From my background in career transition coaching, my acceptance to UC Berkeley, and top job offers (i.e., Google, Netflix), I learned the power of building a personal brand and conveying a compelling career trajectory to stand out in competitive fields. I help students make their skills, qualities, and experiences transferable to their college and career goals while strategizing how they'll achieve them based on where they apply.

Having mentored many students on their unique journey from middle school through college, I have years of experience helping them craft their remarkable stories. As a professional chess player, musician, and artist, I am passionate about empowering students to cultivate their passions outside the classroom. I graduated from Cornell University with honors in 2024 with a BS in Applied Economics & Management.
