College Admissions Consultant | Former BU Asst Director & Dartmouth Reader
Welcome to my profile! I’m a college admissions coach with a robust background in education and career development, having supported 100+ students through every stage of the application process. As a former Assistant Director at Boston University and Admissions Reader for Dartmouth College, I evaluated thousands of applications each year and developed a deep understanding of what top universities are truly looking for. I also consult for one of the leading admissions firms in the country, keeping my coaching aligned with the latest best practices in the field. My experience includes leading multicultural recruitment initiatives and building partnerships with organizations like The Posse Foundation to expand access and equity in higher education. I specialize in highly personalized coaching, academic planning, extracurricular and internship strategy, scholarship guidance, and application/essay review; paired with clear, strategic recommendations and structured coaching plans that strengthen your overall profile. Let’s work together to craft a compelling story and application that stands out in a competitive admissions landscape.
