2016 graduate of the University Program of Engineering & Design. Active participant in student government, robotics, the school newspaper, local political campaigns, and a public policy group.

Class of 2020 graduate from Cornell University’s School of Industrial and Labor Relations. I learned valuable insights into organizational dynamics, human behavior, and strategic thinking.

In the midst of the pandemic, I launched my career in finance, working in equity markets as an institutional salesperson at Peel Hunt (UK investment bank and leading corporate broker). During my five years at Peel Hunt (2020-2025), I developed expertise in parsing and repositioning equity research, complex problem-solving, cultivating client relationships, and navigating high-pressure environments. This experience gave me unique insights into what characteristics top investors seek in candidates and how to effectively communicate value propositions – skills that translate directly to helping students craft compelling college applications.

My combination of a STEM background, Ivy League education, and professional success in finance provides me with a multifaceted perspective on the college admissions process. I understand firsthand what it takes to gain admission to selective institutions and succeed in demanding academic and professional environments, making me uniquely qualified to guide students through their own college application journeys.
