About Khalid
Experienced coach in preparing for the medical school admissions process as well as a career in medicine. I provide a unique perspective within the admissions process having had past experience interviewing and interning at the financial firm Goldman Sachs. I began admissions coaching during my own medical school application after having created a course via the site SkillShare highlighting my entire application. After receiving overwhelmingly positive feedback, I began doing one-on-one consultations with past students. Since then, I have provided one-on-one services for the last four years tailoring my advice to the needs of each applicant. If you have any questions feel free to reach out, and I look forward to working with you soon.

Member
City Year
August 2019 - January 2020
The City Year Americorps Program assists students in underfunded schools across the United States to maintain positive lifestyle choices and sustainable academic progress. Under this program, I taught 5th-grade mathematics with a partner teacher at the Orchard Gardens K-8 Pilot School in Roxbury, MA. Additionally, I was a tutor and mentor at the Boys & Girls Club of Boston, where I ran after school programs for my students. Within my role, I assisted students to remain on track with classroom goals as well as with graduation protocols through one-on-one and group tutoring sessions.
Research Program Manager
National Institutes of Health
May 2019 - August 2019
The SUMR program provides underrepresented minority students the opportunity to explore health services research. Under this program, I worked on two projects with Dr. Scott Halpen and Dr. Carmen Guerra, respectively. With Dr. Halpern, I tested the comparative effectiveness of strategies for smoking cessation among underserved patients eligible for lung cancer screening, and with Dr. Guerra, I conducted a cost-effectiveness analysis of the Penn Medicine Colorectal Cancer Screening Navigation Program. Through SUMR my understanding of research has expanded to include qualitative measures, and in health services research I have found a connection between business and medicine that interests me.
Stress Analyst
Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center
January 2019 - May 2019
The Clinical Physiology Lab at BIDMC completes exercise and pharmacological stress tests for both in-patients and out-patients. I had the responsibilities of preparing patients for the tests by taking patient histories, placing electrodes on patients, and getting consent for the tests. I also would scribe the results of the test with a technician. This opportunity was incredibly valuable to me as I experienced first-hand the collaborative nature of the medical field; to complete a test, I had to effectively communicate results to physicians, physiologists, interpreters, and technicians. I also gained experience in reading EKGs, and this has sparked a potential interest in cardiology.
