You don't need a perfect application. You need the right strategy.
One-on-one guidance for pre-med students — from building your school list to writing standout essays and walking into interviews ready. Personalized, honest, and built around your story.
I got in without the "traditional" stats — and I help you do the same.
I'm an incoming medical student, and I help pre-med students get into medical school. You don't need the traditional 515+ MCAT or a 3.8+ GPA to get in — I did it with stats below both.
From Saint Mary's College of California, I earned 5 MD interviews and 3 acceptances from 18 applications, despite a late start. That ratio wasn't luck.
It came from strategy: knowing exactly where to apply, writing focused and authentic secondaries, and presenting a cohesive story rather than a checklist.
Whether you're planning years ahead or you're mid-cycle and need help with your personal statement, secondaries, or interviews, I give practical, honest guidance from someone who recently lived it — not generic advice from a template. Let's build a plan that gets you in.
Support for every part of your application
Work with me on a single piece or the whole journey. Every service is tailored to your story — nothing is copied from a template.
School List Strategy
A balanced, realistic list across reach, target, and safety schools — with clear rationale for each, including MD vs. DO considerations.
Personal Statement
Find the right hook, structure your narrative, and make every character count — from first draft to final polish.
Work & Activities
Frame your research, clinical hours, volunteering, and leadership to highlight real growth and impact.
Secondary Essays
School-specific guidance so each essay reflects that school's mission and complements the rest of your application.
Interview Prep
Mock interviews (traditional or MMI), plus coaching on delivery, common questions, and written feedback to sharpen every answer.
Always Reachable
When you work with me, you get direct access by text or call throughout the process — so you're never stuck or second-guessing on your own.
