I’m an Ivy League grad (Penn/Wharton), lawyer, published author, and a College Admissions Interviewer (Alumni Committee member) at the University of Pennsylvania. I’ve been a professional writer for over ten years and can edit/write to any level or genre.
My expertise includes drafting & editing everything from research papers, CVs, resumes, and cover letters to thesis papers and dissertations. I'm also an international lecturer/consultant on topics ranging from Ivy League admissions strategies to editing/writing admissions essays, one of my specialties.
Over 93% of my clients have gained admission into either their Top Choice or a Top 50 College based on U.S. News and World Report rankings. And 100% of their admissions essays (Personal Statements) were beautifully crafted, artfully branded, and grammatically flawless submissions that seamlessly articulated how and why the student would be a remarkable addition to their campus.
Recent acceptances include Amherst, United States Military Academy at West Point, Arizona, Boston College, Boston U, Brandeis, Brown, Bucknell, Univ. of Chicago, Colorado, Columbia, Cornell, UConn, Drexel, Duke, Florida, Georgetown, George Washington, Harvard, Johns Hopkins, Loyola Marymount, Marquette, Maryland, U. Miami, Michigan, MIT, NYU Stern, Northeastern, Ohio State, Penn State, University of Pennsylvania and the Wharton School of Business, Pepperdine, Purdue, Tulane, Cal Berkeley, UCLA, USC, and Wake Forest.
I founded Ivy League Scholar, an educational consultancy specializing in elite college admissions, academic writing, admissions essays, personal statements, and related consulting services. I also lecture nationally and internationally on the Focus & Philosophy of Ivy League Admissions and writing Personal Statements and other admissions essays for the Ivy League and other highly selective schools. Typically, my lectures are designed for college preparatory high schools and college students seeking admission to graduate school.
