Jason’s College Qualifications
Jason has helped clients get into these schools:
Hi! I am a results-oriented coach who will work with you to create a structured plan to tackle your applications. As a Duke University graduate with dual degrees in Political Science and Computer Science, I bring a unique background in both STEM and humanities. I focus on understanding underlying statistics and which schools to apply to, and how to tie your essays together and sell yourself. My experience as a member of the Duke Debating Society and my leadership roles in the Air Force ROTC have honed my skills in communication, leadership, and innovation. I have a proven track record of success, from joining as an intelligence leader of the highly selective United States Space Force (50/4000 selected in 2021) to the high-stakes environment at the Pentagon where I was 1/12 officers chosen to start my career there. Whether you're aiming for top-tier universities or seeking to stand out in your application, I'm here to help you craft a compelling narrative and achieve your academic goals. Let's connect and make your college dreams a reality!
