Growing up in Southern California between an immigrant and a public school teacher as parents, I developed a love for exploring new ideas and cultures. After earning my degree in International Affairs at UC San Diego, I taught in Indonesia and California before pursuing a Master’s at Columbia University, focused on social policy and management. My journey then led me through strategy consulting and tech recruiting before I landed in admissions at UC Berkeley.
It was there that I realized how much the higher education landscape has evolved—and how many factors I hadn’t considered in my own educational path. Now, I’m passionate about helping others navigate their own educational journeys with clarity and confidence.
