About David
I am a public policy professional and education advisor. I have lived, worked, and studied in the United States, Asia, and Latin America. I know what it's like to navigate highly selective admissions and hiring processes as an international applicant, and I'm here to share with you the insights that have helped me land spots at Brown, Oxford, Cambridge, Schwarzman Scholars, and the Atlantic Council. Let's work together to achieve your education and career goals!
Why do I coach?
I’ve seen how a genuine, well-told story can change a life. I’ve also sat on the other side of the table: reviewers move fast and rarely know your context. Coaching lets me meet great people, hear their stories, and help them reach the next step by asking the right questions to sharpen how they explain their impact and goals. That's the secret to landing life-changing opportunities, and I'm here to share it with you.
