"Hello, I'm Emily. I'm a second-year medical student at Harvard Medical School with a dual interest in medicine & health journalism.

I have over 4 years of experience tutoring organic chem and biochemistry, and have edited dozens of graduate school personal statements. I'm eager to help you no matter where you are in the college or medical school application process, including figuring out how to present your experiences & story in a compelling way on the Common App or AMCAS application, writing compelling essays, and practicing for interviews.

At Williams College, I studied chemistry & was a 3-sport athlete. After college, I worked in aging research for a couple years before getting a master's in journalism and working as a freelance writer. In addition to scoring a 519 on the MCAT (130/127/131/131), I have years of professional experience writing and editing.

As someone with a nontraditional path to medical school, I appreciate how the twists and turns in people's journeys to medicine inform what they hope to accomplish in the field. It's important to understand and highlight your narrative when applying to medical school, and I'm ready to support you in that process. Please let me know if you have questions, or if you'd like to work together." less...
