Throughout my 20+-year career, my focus has solely been on admissions work. Over the past five years, I have been employed as an Independent Educational Consultant, where my primary responsibility has been guiding and assisting numerous students each year in their successful applications to prestigious institutions such as Harvard University and other highly competitive universities. As a Harvard graduate myself, I take great pleasure in supporting students who aspire to navigate the application process with minimal stress.My experience focuses on domestic students and first-generation college applicants. In addition, I have also worked with students from diverse backgrounds from around the world. To actively recruit students, I have traveled extensively, visiting numerous countries including India, Canada, China, Brazil, Ghana, the UK, Korea, and Spain. By limiting the number of students I work with, I ensure that each individual receives the personalized attention they deserve, allowing them to thrive throughout the application journey.
