About Wooseok

I am a NYC entertainment lawyer with former experiences as a BigLaw corporate associate, YouTube copyright associate, and published author of a best-selling book. I have served as a coach and mentor to many applicants over the years, providing guidance in law school admissions, essay & resume feedback, LSAT preparation, and general career advice. I also have an international background, living and working in New York, Seoul, Hong Kong, San Francisco Bay Area, Washington D.C. & Philadelphia, which have broadened my perspectives and strengthened my passion for working with applicants that have interesting stories to tell.

Why do I coach?

I strongly believe that everyone has a story, and that with a good coach you can craft a narrative geared towards success in admissions, interviews, and job offers. Having had a variety of different mentors and coaches through the years, I want to share my knowledge with the next generation of law students and coach them to success. I applied to law school with 2 years of professional experience and a respectable LSAT score. However, I knew that I needed a narrative that would give me the edge over other competitive applicants. Ultimately, I strongly believe that it was my unique personal statement combined with other important factors that granted me admission to the top U.S. law schools. Whether you're navigating the law school application process, adapting to changes in the legal industry, or shaping your professional path, I’d love to strategize with you and offer insights to help you succeed.
