Get Into Top Schools (and Get Paid to Go) | CWRU, Parsons, Google Alum
I believe in going to school without going into debt—and I’ve done it myself. I earned full-ride offers to Case Western Reserve, Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology, and the Illinois Institute of Technology, along with 34 outside scholarships when I applied to college. I also attended graduate school at Parsons with a full scholarship. Since then, I’ve helped students gain admission to competitive undergraduate and graduate programs, including Harvard, The Ohio State University College of Medicine, and top engineering and tech schools. Whether you're applying to college for the first time or aiming for a professional program, I’ll help you think through your story, strengthen your application, and position your experience in a way that’s both authentic and strategic. As a trained designer and UX consultant, I bring a sharp eye to how your materials are presented—and I’m passionate about helping your application stand out in ways that are memorable and human.
