Helping build impactful futures from early ages

When I was motorcycling through the rice fields of Bali in 2009, teaching with the Princeton Fellowship program, I never imagined my work would grow into the holistic preparatory program it is today—helping hundreds of students not just get into top universities, but build extraordinary lives.

In my early years working under top college coaches and learning from elite admissions leaders, I mastered the art of packaging successful applicants. But alongside that, I was chasing my own lifelong dream of becoming a working actress—a journey that took me from Hollywood to international film sets.
‍
Auditioning taught me that high stakes demand preparation and sold me on the power of storytelling. Over time, I became known for drawing stories out of teenagers and teaching them how to tell their stories in compelling ways.

But the deeper I got into this work, the more I saw the flaw in the college prep industry.

‍Too much focus on shaping the perfect application, and not enough on shaping the person. I didn’t want to just help kids tell their stories—I wanted to help them create stories. And I didn’t want to serve only the top 5% of students already destined for success. I wanted to help all students build lives so interesting, so bold, that their stories naturally became compelling.

Today, I’ve doubled down on my mission to solve education problems in this country, starting with my own local community. I look forward to the opportunity to work with your family.
