I’m an Educational Consultant and MIT grad from the late 2000s, who cuts through the noise to give students real, practical advice that actually works. At Brass Tacks Advising, I’m here for one thing: to help students navigate the admissions process without the endless meetings, inflated fees, or unnecessary stress. Need a quick essay fix? Done. Strategy session? Let’s go. I don’t mess around with long-term contracts or overcomplicated plans. My approach is simple—deliver high-quality, no-BS guidance that gets results fast, so students can focus on what really matters.

I don’t believe in bloated processes or cookie-cutter advice. My goal is simple: give students exactly what they need, when they need it, without wasting time or money. I don’t do fluff, I don’t sugarcoat, and I don’t believe in dragging out sessions just to look busy. I focus on real, actionable feedback that gets results, fast. Whether it’s a 30-minute strategy call or a last-minute essay fix, I cut to the chase, so students get the honest insights and practical help they need to stand out—no BS, just results.
