Why not just use ChatGPT?

ChatGPT is a great tool, but it can’t replace real insight from someone who knows the college admissions game. AI can give you a generic draft, but:

  • It doesn’t know your story or how to tell it authentically

  • It often sounds formulaic, repetitive, or inauthentic

  • It doesn’t know what admissions officers at your target schools are actually looking for

  • It can’t guide you through strategy, voice, or fit

  • Admissions officers can easily spot AI writing

Can I DM you instead of emailing?

Yes! You can schedule a time or DM me directly with questions or drafts. Communication should be easy, not stressful.

What types of payment do you accept?

I prefer Zelle, Venmo, Apple Cash, and PayPal. I’m happy to accommodate on other platforms as well.
