Chief Sanity Officer
Applying to college is a taxing journey, but having a guide can make it an adventure. I was raised in Silicon Valley, so I know it can be challenging to stand out among high-achieving peers. As a coach, I'm here to guide you by providing actionable support through each phase of the writing process:
​
-
asking questions that force you to think more deeply
-
curating anecdotes that reveal your values and personality
-
giving you options on how to phrase your thoughts coherently, at both the sentence and word level
-
helping you edit your work down to 150-350 words while maximizing what you share about yourself
