What do you want to say? When students arrive with what other people want to hear, my job is to put them back in the driver’s seat. In years of guiding students towards admissions success, my mission is to help students find what’s true to them. College admissions can make us over-emphasize where we want to be. But in order to write a compelling essay, we must know where we are now. 

Forfeiting a legacy at both MIT & Harvard to pursue storytelling, I studied animation at California Institute of the Arts, and worked for companies like StudioCanal (The Hunger Games, Paddington, The Bling Ring) and Valhalla Entertainment (The Terminator, The Walking Dead) before pursuing indie filmmaking. And yet, my story has come full circle. I'm still dedicated to asking young people to define what matters most to them, to help them move towards the most meaningful path

Zach is a graduate of the University of Chicago with a B.A. in Psychology who shares a genuine love and passion for building lifetime connections with his clients. With a wide range of life experience, ranging from the incredibly competitive landscape of academics at UChicago, to working with researchers in medicine and clinical health research, to 6 years as an educational tutor, to leaving the world of medicine behind to pursue a career as an actor, Zach has learned how to embrace every challenge in life as an opportunity to find happiness and purpose within.  

Zach's philosophy in the college application process is simple and intuitive; in the world of college applications, the only "right" way to proceed is to make it as much about the journey as the end result. Together, let's make it about the growth, discovery, and spontaneity that comes with the journey. In doing that, you will absolutely end up matching with the school that you are destined to.
