The Leeway
Difference
Coaching, beyond consulting.
My work isn’t just about refining applications. It’s about shaping confident, thoughtful, and resilient students, so they can emerge as scholars, leaders, and changemakers in college (and beyond). This level of transformation can’t be outsourced or substituted, which is why I partner 1:1 with students at every step of our journey together.
Deeply human.
In the age of AI, college essays shouldn’t just sound human. They should feel human. Every application I work on is thoughtfully designed to reflect each student’s unique story, voice, and ambitions. I then integrate their experiences with a cohesive “theme” that aligns seamlessly with the mission and values of their dream schools.
Proven results.
My students achieve a 97% acceptance rate to top universities. That’s a 5x higher rate of success than the industry average, as I work with a select group of students each year to ensure every application is outstanding It’s no surprise that most of my clients come through referrals, a reflection of trust and unmatched results.

The strongest applicants are those who get a head start.

Together, we’ll build the foundation for a compelling profile, long before the admissions cycle begins.

Competition for colleges is more fierce than ever. The most successful applicants stand out not only for what they’ve achieved, but for the story only they can tell.
