My process

I previously worked in the Yale University Admissions Office. I’m highly familiar with selective university admissions and scholarship programs. I work with each student on a tailored plan that best fits their working style and ensures they are on track to reach their goal. I also align with the student on how to decide which majors and programs best fit their aspirations. This means creating smaller, achievable goals the student can feel excited about through the process!
