I got started to help students like you stand out in a world where ‘captain of the basketball team’ and ‘president of the debate club’ are everywhere. Let’s be clear—your achievements matter. But admissions officers rather learn about the stories of grit, creativity, and humanity behind them. Let’s write yours.
The good news is — you don’t need more achievements. You need a story that sticks—one where mindset, resilience, and self-awareness turn you into a memorable person worthy of admissions.
Having mentored 150+ students into top universities, I’ve learned what colleges truly want—and how to give you an unfair advantage:
- I Know How Colleges Spot Potential
Teaching AP classes meant grading hundreds of essays, coaching students through college-level rigor, and writing recommendation letters that admissions committees actually remember.
→ You’ll learn to showcase intellectual curiosity and turn life’s struggles into stories of growth admissions officers crave. - I’ve Seen What Makes Applications Stick
Having mentored my students from AP exams to Ivy League dorms, I know the difference between a “qualified” applicant and one that colleges are thrilled to admit.
→ You’ll avoid clichés like “passion for community service” and focus on moments only you could write.
- I Know How Colleges Spot Potential
By the end, you’ll:
- Replace “What do they want?!” panic with a clear, cohesive theme.
- Turn fragmented achievements into a narrative that shouts, “This is who I am.”
- Actually enjoy the process (yes, even the essays).
No buzzwords. No cookie-cutters. Just clarity on what makes you unforgettable—so colleges see you as a must-have, not a maybe.
