Erin
Testimonials
-
“Overall the experience was great. Prior to working with my coaches, I had little to no knowledge of what my application should look like to be competitive. My premed advisors weren't as helpful as my coaches were. Erin was very helpful in strategically ordering details within the writing portions to deliver the most meaningful takeaway. I attribute much of the success I made this cycle to the work I did with Erin and my strategy coach. The admin staff was also super helpful and supportive.”

James, MD Applicant -
“I worked with Erin for medical school applications. She helped me transform my personal statement into an essay I was extremely proud of, and supported me in writing supplemental essays for 23 schools. Erin is brilliant, kind, and charismatic. She made me feel very comfortable from the first session; working together was fun and enjoyable. While working on essays, Erin helped me think critically about the structure of my essay and my word choice. She helped me reword ideas and come up with anecdotes that jumped off the page. She also asked me thoughtful questions to further unpack how my interests or my experiences inform my professional vision, for example. Erin was reliable, responsive, and professional. I would recommend Erin highly and hope to work with her again in the future.”
