Bio

I am a graduate of Harvard (1998) and Harvard Law School (2002). I am also a former Harvard alum interviewer (2005-2007 - before I started consulting students privately). As a former Harvard alum interviewer, I would interview high school students and evaluate their special talents and overall candidacy for Harvard. Now, I keep rigorous statistics of the schools to which my clients obtained admission. I am proud that in 2008-2021, a whopping 97.2% of my clients obtained admission to their...

I am a graduate of Harvard (1998) and Harvard Law School (2002). I am also a former Harvard alum interviewer (2005-2007 - before I started consulting students privately). As a former Harvard alum interviewer, I would interview high school students and evaluate their special talents and overall candidacy for Harvard. Now, I keep rigorous statistics of the schools to which my clients obtained admission. I am proud that in 2008-2021, a whopping 97.2% of my clients obtained admission to their first choice schools. I do have particular expertise in the Ivy Leagues, Stanford, MIT and Caltech. But I am likewise delighted to help create marketable admissions essays targeted to any undergraduate or graduate program any where in the world so long as the application is in English.

Every year, a large number of my clients obtain undergraduate (Bachelor's) admission to: Harvard, Stanford, Yale, Princeton, University of Chicago, Columbia, MIT, Caltech, UC Berkeley, and UCLA among many other top schools. And, every year, a large number of my clients obtain Law School (JD, LLM, or SJD/JSD) admission to Harvard Law School, Yale Law School, Stanford Law School, Upenn Law School, Uchi Law School, Columbia Law School, etc. And finally, every year a large number of my clients applying to Business School (MBA or other) programs obtain admission to: Harvard Business School, Stanford Graduate School of Business, Haas, Anderson, Wharton, Sloan and various other Master's or Ph.D. programs.

I have been consulting students and their parents for 13 years. I explain how to submit explanations about inferior grade semesters. I also advise about LSAT, GMAT, SAT, ACT, SSAT and GRE explanations about unusual circumstances surrounding the test-taking environment that the admissions committee ought to know. I can edit or write your resume, cover letter or CV. For SJD applicants, I proofread the research proposal with citations in Bluebook format, writing sample and personal statement. Your booked session may also be a mock interview.

Much less money for a TON of editing that I needed than I ever imagined, and was so much more than only just editing

I was trying to submit essays to eleven private schools, each of which had multiple and very different essays one from the next one. So practically speaking, along with small essays and various other questions I would say I had over 50 essays. I thought this would cost me a fortune. My friends in school spent thousands and thousands in money hard to find each and every time. I thought I would have to spend a ton of money. Nope, Dina did everything. What's even better than the surprising deal I got with Dina, is that seriously, this was the best editing session I ever had in my life, anywhere. One of the essays I wrote gave one impression to a school which she explained, no, I actually needed the opposite type of impression to the school. And she explained exactly why. I then realized she was totally right. This was just one example. She corrected something a guidance counselor told me, which turned out incorrect in my strategy of which school applications to send and when and how. I also never realized how important the additional things you can submit are. I will submit 4 extra items now! I am also getting an extra recommendation letter to and explained to me how to do that procedurally. I did not realized a previous job boss could write one and what he really should say. I now have a template with bullet points to give to him to remind him of what I did on the job and he will take it from there. This will definitely impress the schools. I had no idea I could do that. There were a dozen things just like that - extra things I didn't realized I could do. So glad I found her!!
