Qualifications:
I graduated from Rice in Biology and Psychology (top 1% SAT), then tutored for 1200+ hours before studying medicine at UTHSC San Antonio (top 10% MCAT). After discontinuing the medical path, I pivoted to tech and published an Amazon bestseller. Next, I co-founded a data company in D.C. featured in the top 10 tech stories of 2018. I then earned my MBA from the McCombs School (top 1% GMAT), worked as a management consultant at the world's top restructuring firm, then left corporate to become Chief of Staff at a major toy manufacturer.

More recently, I started a therapy company that specializes in treating addiction, trauma, and chronic pain. My team treats disorders that conventional therapy cannot solve. I now live a semi-retired life and occasionally work to help others through teaching, business, and psychology.

I hold multiple perfect scores on standardized tests, plus a clinically verified WAIS score three standard deviations past median adult intelligence. By objective metrics, I am in the top 0.01%.

Unique value-add:
With a rigorous background in career advisory, academia, corporate strategy, and psychodynamics, I deliver world-class services. I will help you craft the perfect resume, ace interviews, plan your business, heal your childhood trauma, and write beautiful essays for medical school, law school, PT school, and elite MBA programs.

I am the top tutor and coach on Wyzant's entire platform.

Data Analysis

Data Analysis

I am a retired management consultant, formerly a manager at the world's largest turnaround and bankruptcy consulting firm. Excel-based data analysis has been my work for the past decade. There are many questions and tasks that Excel-based AI tools are unable to address because they do not truly think and they are prone to error. I will help you with the analysis you need.
GMAT

GMAT

I have a top 1% GMAT score of 760, including perfect Writing and Integrated Reasoning scores.
GRE

GRE

I scored top 4% in GRE verbal. I scored top 12% in GRE quantitative. I scored top 7% in GRE writing. I have tutored for several years. I have a solid schematic for teaching GRE strategies in order of topic, which mirrors the structure used by Barron's.
Interview Prep

Interview Prep

My interview preparation clients get into tier 1 colleges, MBA programs, and med schools. I have helped dozens of clients interview prep for post-grad employment. My clients have landed roles at top companies, including tier 1 consulting. I am master certified in Neurolinguistic Programming, which gives me a skillset no other interviewer on Wyzant can match.
Personal Statements

Personal Statements

I am a graduate of a top university and MBA program, and I have worked in recruiting. I know what these programs look for, what common advice is not actually true, and how to write a top tier personal statement. My clients get into tier 1 colleges, MBA programs, and med schools.
Physics

Physics

I have taken six semesters of physics. I have tutored for several years. I have tutored physics for 1 year. Physics is one of my favorite subjects, and I can make it very easy to understand for students.

As an MBA, I have expert training in interviewing at the highest level. I have chaired multiple student organizations and have presented for all of them, one of which included monthly speeches to audiences of over 100. I have many years of tutoring experience and am versed in nuanced public speaking techniques, including pacing, avoiding jargon, enunciation, utilizing space, etc.
SAT Math

SAT Math

I scored a perfect score on SAT I math and SAT II math every time I took either test. I have tutored students in SAT (all sections) for years. I have also tutored all math from K-12+ for several years, including SAT I, SAT II, ACT, STAAR, TAKS, GRE, GMAT, Algebra I and II, Geometry, Trigonometry, Calculus, etc.
SAT Reading

SAT Reading

I scored in the top 1% when I first took this exam as a high schooler. Since then, I have tutored for several years in many subjects. I am well-versed in this topic and can teach strategies such as deducing the answer to a verbal question when the answer choices are unfamiliar. I tutor verbal/reading for graduate level standardized tests as well, such as the MCAT, the GRE, and the GMAT.
SAT Writing

SAT Writing

I didn't miss a single question in SAT writing when I took it years ago. I have been tutoring SAT for many years since. I know how the exam graders think and can teach the most efficient method for achieving a high score on the essay portion.
