Alex has helped dozens of students attend their top choice universities, including acceptances into Columbia University, UC Berkeley, Carnegie Mellon, University of Texas, and NYU. A natural storyteller with a strong background in both STEM and liberal arts admissions, Alex loves helping her students find tailored activity, award, and competition opportunities to showcase their talents. Alex believes in encouraging her students' personalities to shine through their writing and focuses on making each application the perfect fit for their school of choice. Her favorite part of the process is mentoring students to find their narratives and crafting compelling essays tailored to bring out their unique voices.
Competitions and Awards
Alex can help your child find the perfect opportunity to showcase their talents. Last year, all of Alex’s students who chose to enter the John Locke National Essay Competition received awards for their work!
Tools to Succeed
For many years, Alex has worked with students with special needs to help them develop the tools for better focus, participation, and advocacy for themselves. Students with autism, ADHD, or other challenges will find a safe space in their sessions with her, building the tools to succeed.
Research and Pre-College Programs
Alex helps her students find and apply to prestigious summer programs that suit their interests and allow them to demonstrate their skills. Alex also provides extra, highly personalized support for her students over the summer in an English literature and writing “boot camp.” Preparation for new semesters is key, and her students’ confidence comes in knowing that they have the skills already.
