"About Me:

I am a certified instructor with ten years of experience in college prep and secondary education. After holding many positions within the education field—from teaching in the classroom to counseling—I found my passion through working with prospective college students. In 2017, I developed a college admissions academy for high school juniors and seniors in partnership with UC Davis. The week-long academy prepares high school students for college through one-on-one application assistance, personal statement workshops, and financial aid seminars. Since its formation, I’ve assisted hundreds of students with their college applications. I now live in Los Angeles where I work with LAUSD students from across the district as a Personal Statement and College Application Coach.

How I Coach:

When working with any student, my goal is to look at the bigger picture. I begin by assessing what needs to be accomplished and what resources are available to do so. I take pride in delivering the best service possible according to what each student needs. For example—Working on a personal statement, but don’t feel you have the experience necessary for your desired major? No problem. I will coach you through finding relevant details in uncommon areas, while highlighting the personality traits that make you a desired candidate. Or—Overwhelmed by the amount of prompts and not sure which one to choose? I will help you outline which writing prompt will best suit you and your overall application. Whether you plan on booking multiple coaching sessions or just one hour, I will do everything I can to leave you in the most confident, prepared place you can possibly be to accomplish your goals.

My Specialties:

High School and Undergraduate Students

College Application Essays: UCs, Cal State, Common App, Personal Statements

Proofreading & Editing (college-level)
