Bio
Priya Desai has worked in college admissions for over five years and has helped others with writing for as long as she can remember! Priya graduated summa cum laude from UCLA's Class of 2020 with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology and worked for a top human resources consulting firm shortly after graduation. During the pandemic, Priya realized a passion for helping others - especially students - feel more empowered in their educational and professional trajectory. Priya also has work experience in healthcare technology, marketing, art, teaching English to non-native speakers, and tutoring from the preschool to high school level. As an oldest sister and cousin, Priya is passionate about helping younger students navigate the often-confusing and seemingly opaque world of college admissions on a personal level.
