About

Hi! I'm a recent graduate (2022) of Yale University, where I majored in Molecular, Cellular, and Developmental Biology. Currently, I live in Cambridge and will be spending the next two years at the Broad Institute performing cancer research. I've tutored high school and college students for over four years, and have an additional year of experience in college advising. I know that the college application process brings a slew of stresses and challenges-I'm here to alleviate as much of that stress as possible and help you feel confident going through the application season. If you'd like to schedule and advising session, please message me directly so that we can find a time that works well for us both!

Parent G.

“Thank you for your helpful advice, it gave me a picture of my essay and how could I elaborate on it in the future."

Long N.

“I've been working on my essay for so long now - I think I've gone through like 5-7 more draft - And I always come back to reference this review. It was clear to me you actually enjoyed reading my essay, and this has helped me feel so much more confident about it. I agree with all the points you've said, and since then, I've addressed all of them. Thank you so much for your feedback, and I wish you a merry christmas."
