I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with a degree in Finance from the Wharton School and currently work at a top-tier global consulting firm. In three years, I’ll be attending Harvard Business School as part of a deferred MBA program. I was also awarded a Fulbright Scholarship, which gave me the opportunity to represent the U.S. abroad while continuing my work in education and storytelling.

My tutoring background includes several years of helping high school and college students craft compelling personal statements, write analytical essays, and prepare for standardized tests like the SAT, ACT, and GMAT. I specialize in helping students develop their authentic voice, structure their ideas clearly, and refine their writing to meet both academic and admissions standards. I’ve worked with students one-on-one in person and online, and I’ve supported applicants to Ivy League and top public universities.

I believe tutoring is most effective when it's personal, patient, and empowering. I aim to help students feel confident in their unique strengths while equipping them with concrete tools and strategies that lead to measurable improvement. Whether it’s brainstorming a college essay or breaking down a tough reading passage, I tailor my approach to meet each student’s goals and learning style.
