About Me
I earned my Bachelor of Science degree from Stanford University in Management Science and Engineering and a minor from the Stanford Graduate School of Education in teaching and learning. My Stanford education has profoundly impacted my life and fuels my work to help students reach their dream schools!
Throughout the college application process, I secured 6-figures in merit aid scholarship offers from Top 20 schools through my academics, extracurriculars, and college application alone. No extra steps, just a compelling application. Since then, I’ve helped my clients secure over 7 figures in merit aid scholarships. I will teach your student how to do the same through my 4-step framework in my 1:1 coaching program.

Ivy League Expert
Every year, I have multiple clients accepted into every Ivy League school across the country including Harvard, Yale, Princeton, UPenn, Cornell, Columbia, Dartmouth, and Brown. In addition to Ivy League schools, in the last 12 months, I welcomed 5 clients into the Stanford Class of 2027 and multiple students into other Top 20 schools including UChicago, Georgetown, UCLA, UC Berkeley, Georgia Tech, UNC Chapel Hill, UT Austin, Vassar, Bowdoin, etc.
Your student has a packed schedule. I get it, I did too.
As someone who has directly navigated the test prep and college application process, I have mastered the skill of rapidly raising your SAT or ACT score in a limited amount of time. The summer before my senior year in preparation for applications to top schools, I raised my SAT score from the 1300s to 1500 in less than 90 days and have since helped over 150 students do the same.
The SCORE method I teach inside of Ivy League Score is real-life proof - built from my direct experience of what it’s actually like to be a busy teen who needs to raise their SAT or ACT score. I will teach your student how to reach their goal score with ease while also balancing sports, extracurriculars, part-time jobs, AP classes, summer programs, and their social life.

1500+ Hours of Coaching Across 10 Different Countries
Over the last 7 years, I have amassed over 1500 hours of coaching and teaching students - starting in my local Panera in Wilmington, NC and expanding to coach students across 10 different countries.
Your student deserves reliability and expertise during one of the most important seasons of their academic career - not someone who consults “on the side”. As the CEO of Young College Prep, my career is dedicated to helping students get accepted into their dream schools. From how to balance SAT/ACT prep and extracurriculars to navigating self-comparison among their peers, I know exactly how to help them.
IT IS ONE THING TO ATTEND AN IVY LEAGUE SCHOOL YOURSELF, IT IS ANOTHER THING TO HELP STUDENTS FROM A VARIETY OF DIFFERENT BACKGROUNDS DO THE SAME EVERY YEAR. THIS IS THE SKILL SET I BRING TO MY CLIENTS.
As a coach with direct Ivy League experience, I don't just help students get accepted. I help students thrive in the Ivy League schools they want to attend through the mindset, skills, and strategies I teach.
Growing up, I was constantly buzzing around the teacher's classroom trying to figure out how I could help explain problems to my classmates. As I progressed throughout high school, I noticed that I was able to explain concepts to my peers in a clear and understandable way that sparked deeper understanding. As someone in their position, I knew exactly how to help them. This is the power of peer education. At 15, after becoming a go-to tutor and academically coaching high school students in my community, I utilized the power of peer education to create a tutoring program for K -12 students.
I've always loved teaching since I was a little girl.
After scaling this company to service over 50 students in my local community, Young College Prep was born.
Here's my story
In 2018, as I began the college application process, I realized that the industry lacked coaches who could relate to and deeply understand students applying to college in this new day and age. I struggled to find practical advice on how to raise my SAT or ACT score.
Even more so, I struggled to find coaches who looked like myself and could support the growing number of students of color applying to top schools across the country.
The college application process has changed rapidly over the last few decades.
So I did. Using the process I teach inside Ivy league Score, in 4 months, I reached my goal score in the 99th percentile, created a phenomenal application that authentically represented ME, and was accepted into Stanford early (even with a 4% acceptance rate). After being accepted into several more Ivy League schools, I was able to choose between several top institutions and 5-figure merit aid offers from several Top 20 schools.
Even more importantly, I knew that if I figured it out, I could help other students do the same.
The summer before I applied to Stanford I knew that I needed to raise my score if I wanted to have any chance of getting accepted. After taking the PSAT, PACT, SAT, and ACT several times, I tried studying with Khan Academy and lengthy test-prep books - but still couldn't achieve my goal score. Between juggling AP classes and other extracurriculars, I knew that I needed a quick solution that wouldn't waste my time.
Stanford, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Columbia, Barnard, Dartmouth, Cornell, UChicago, UC Berkeley, Georgia Tech, UNC Chapel Hill, UCLA, and several other top schools across the nation.
My students have been accepted into
Using the right process, my life changed forever. After transforming my own academic career and matriculating at Stanford, I committed to doing the same for other students. As someone who has been in your student’s exact position, I know exactly how to help them. After amassing 1000+ hours of coaching and teaching experience, I’ve built Young College Prep into a global educational consulting company that has helped hundreds of students around the world achieve their goal scores and reach their top schools.
As a coach with direct Ivy League experience, I don't just help students get accepted. I help students thrive in the Ivy League schools they want to attend through the mindset, skills, and strategies I teach. This requires a different skill set as a coach and direct experience having navigated an Ivy League camp campus yourself. That's what I bring to the table.
After 1,000+ hours of coaching and teaching, I know that helping students reach their dream schools is my calling. This work is transformational, for this chapter in your student’s life and years to come. If your student is ready to learn how to get accepted into AND succeed at their top school, I'm your coach.
In order to stand out in a competitive applicant pool, you need the right strategy and support from someone who has gone through this process themselves.
I know first-hand how challenging this process can be for students.
