I have strong experience preparing students for both college and the workforce. This includes reviewing resumes and cover letters, supporting the development of personalized job and college searches, and providing feedback on academic writing and college essays to strengthen grammar, clarity, and overall quality. I have also mentored both high school and college students on career development, job readiness, and motivational strategies to help them achieve their goals. My work has combined practical skill-building with individualized coaching to set students up for success.

I graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Biobehavioral Health from Pennsylvania State University, where I gained a strong foundation in academic writing, research methods, and public speaking. I later earned a Master of Public Health from Yale University, where I grew my expertise in social sciences, grant writing, qualitative research methods, and evaluation. During my MPH program, I served as a Teaching Fellow for a course in social and behavioral sciences and public health, gaining formal classroom teaching experience in addition to my one-on-one mentoring.

I tailor my approach to each student’s unique needs, learning style, and goals. My focus is on building confidence while equipping students with practical skills they can use in key life moments, such as preparing for college applications, writing standout resumes and cover letters, or getting ready for job interviews. By creating a supportive environment that emphasizes both growth and achievement, I aim to help students feel prepared, capable, and confident in reaching their next steps.

Career Development

I have mentored both high school and college students on job readiness, career exploration, and professional communication. With a background in public health and teaching experience at the graduate level, I bring strong writing, presentation, and coaching skills to help students build confidence and achieve their goals.
College Counseling

College Counseling

While a student at both Pennsylvania State University, and Yale University, I have mentored several students on the college application and interview process. As a mentor, I was responsible for helping students created personalized college lists, review and provide feedback on key application materials including essays and resumes, and practicing with students for admissions interviews. In addition to being a mentor, I was a Teaching Fellow for a graduate-level course at Yale University and served as a resource for the students in the classes. I helped students navigate the course content, assignments, and overall graduate program.

I have six years of experience writing and editing in the social sciences, with expertise in academic essays, research papers, and articles. In my current role as a Program Manager in a research lab, I regularly assist with preparing manuscripts and publications, ensuring clarity, organization, and strong writing quality. I also have extensive experience reviewing essays for grammar, structure, and overall flow, helping students strengthen their academic writing and communicate their ideas effectively.
Interview Prep

Interview Prep

When mentoring and counseling high-school and college-aged students, I frequently practiced interview techniques and mock interviews with them for both college admissions and job interviews. Further, in my role as a Program Manager I oversee our intern application program, and am responsible for interviewing prospective applications. With this, I have gained experience as the hiring manager conducting interviews and know what to look out, and skills to utilize.
Personal Statements

Personal Statements

I hold a Bachelor’s degree from Pennsylvania State University and a Master of Public Health (MPH) degree from Yale University, experiences that required me to prepare strong personal statements for admission to both programs. Through these successful applications, I developed firsthand expertise in writing compelling narratives that highlight academic and professional achievements. At Yale, my graduate-level coursework further strengthened my writing and communication skills, particularly in crafting persuasive and well-structured arguments. In addition, I have supported students in refining their own college and graduate school personal statements, drawing on my academic background and professional experience to help them present their unique stories with clarity and impact.

As a Project Manager for a research lab at Yale University, I currently oversee a multi-year grant and ensure the successful completion of all required deliverables. In this role, I manage the project budget, coordinate administrative tasks such as scheduling and onboarding, and provide oversight of day-to-day operations. My work requires balancing multiple priorities, maintaining clear communication across teams, and ensuring timelines and goals are consistently met. This experience has strengthened my organizational, leadership, and problem-solving skills, which I bring to every project I manage.
