I approached Dione toward the end of the Round 2 deadlines, having already drafted my applications independently. Initially, I considered forgoing a consultant but ultimately decided the value of targeted feedback especially on essays would be worth the cost. Dione responded promptly to my request, demonstrating a willingness to assist despite the late stage of applications – we worked on an hourly basis together. She conducted a thorough review of my entire application, including my resume, letters of recommendation, transcripts, and essays, to gain a holistic understanding of my profile. During our subsequent conversation, Dione provided insightful and constructive feedback on all aspects of my application, identifying areas for improvement and offering actionable suggestions for enhancement. Her guidance was particularly valuable in clarifying and strengthening my career vision story, ensuring its credibility and achievability. Dione's expertise and genuine care provided the necessary push to refine my application and address any overlooked areas. If you're seeking a professional opinion to fine-tune your already drafted essays, I recommend Dione's expertise.

Sowa blew away my expectations. I was struggling to tell my story, especially with the Stanford prompts, and Sowa was instrumental in helping me discover how to tell it. She recognized my strengths and highlighted them. Writing was 10x easier to write once I had a roadmap that Sowa helped me develop.
