Your Guide Through the Admissions Journey

I'm a proud UT Austin graduate with a BBA in Management Information Systems and an MS in IT & Management, and I was honored with the Eleanor Jordan Award for excellence in MIS, given to only one student per graduating class.

Alongside my career, I've also served as a Lecturer at the McCombs School of Business at UT Austin and as an Admissions Reader for a top public university in Texas—experience that gives me firsthand insight into both how students are taught and how applications are truly evaluated. Through Cedar Pines, I've had the privilege of helping students tell authentic, compelling stories that set them apart, guiding many of them successfully through the college admissions process over the years.

A Modern Approach

My approach is centered on meaningful, one-on-one time with each student. I take the time to deeply understand their passions, activities, and experiences in order to uncover what truly sets them apart. From there, we identify their individual value proposition—or “spike”—and build a cohesive, authentic college application around it, ensuring their story stands out in a crowded admissions landscape.
