Hello! My name is Willis, and I am a current medical student at UCSF with over two years of professional admissions advising experience. I graduated from the University of Southern California in 2022 with a B.S. in Human Biology and completed a research fellowship at the National Institutes of Health prior to medical school. I received 10+ interviews and had a 100% post-interview acceptance rate during the 2024-25 application cycle. Over the past two years, I have helped more than a dozen students from diverse backgrounds earn interviews and offers at highly selective programs including Harvard, UCSF, and Yale.

Throughout this process, I have gained extensive experience working with non-traditional applicants and re-applicants in particular, helping many students turn their unique careers and previous application cycles into compelling success stories. I provide one-on-one advising for students at every stage of the pre-med journey—from early pre-med undergraduates to applicants preparing for their first med school interview. My services include school selection, interview prep/mock interviews, personal statement writing/brainstorming, and long-term career advising for early-stage pre-med students. I believe every student has a unique story worth telling, and my goal is to help you present yours in the most authentic and compelling way possible. I look forward to working with you!

Extremely helpful and well prepared

Before our session, Willis asked about my goals and what parts of my med school application I was most concerned about. He came prepared and quickly helped me see where I could make improvements and how to strengthen my overall strategy. I’ve asked for advice from other people before, but nothing has been as specific, personalized, or practical as what I got from Willis in just one hour. He gave me clear, actionable steps I can follow moving forward, and his approachable, encouraging style made the whole process feel much less overwhelming. I definitely plan to continue working with him as I prepare for the upcoming cycle, and I would highly recommend him to anyone applying.

Made the med school application process so much easier

Willis T. was a huge help during my pre-med admissions journey. From personal statements to secondary essays, he really knew how to bring out my best experiences and frame them in a way that stood out. What I liked most was how he never just “fixed” my writing, but actually explained what admissions committees look for and why certain changes worked better. That made me a much stronger writer overall. He was also incredibly patient whenever I felt overwhelmed by the process. Instead of just giving me generic advice, he tailored his feedback to my goals and kept me focused on what mattered most for each school. On top of essay help, he coached me through interviews, gave honest but supportive feedback on my answers, and helped me feel confident going in. Thanks to Willis, I went from feeling lost in the process to feeling like I had a clear strategy and a stronger application. I would definitely recommend him to anyone going through the med school admissions cycle.
