About Me

My passion for mentoring students through the college admissions’ process stems partially from my own experience. As a high-achieving high schooler, I wanted the best college education possible– but the college counselor at my large public high school had over 500 students and was unable to offer personalized guidance. I had to learn to navigate the college admissions process by myself. Although I was thrilled with my results (admission to multiple Ivy League schools, University of Chicago, and Williams College, among others), my family and I were stressed during the entire college application process.

When I enrolled at Brown University, I immediately signed up for a volunteer mentorship program that paired me with first-generation college applicants. Guiding those students through the college admissions process– and often helping them earn admission to schools they only dreamed of– I discovered my passion for supporting students. I also discovered that my experience applying to college with limited professional guidance wasn’t unique. In fact, the average high school counselor in the United States supports 375 students. I was determined to help provide the dedicated and individualized support that I believe all students deserve, so when I graduated from Brown, I started my own educational consulting business. Since then, I have learned a tremendous amount, gaining crucial experience supporting students with a wide variety of personalities and goals.

I take pride in my ability to support a broad spectrum of students. Whether you’re a straight A student looking to stand out at top schools or a C student who’s just now exploring potential colleges, I can help you find— and get into— a school where you will thrive.
