“Hi Josie! Wanted to check in and let you know that my med school app cycle has officially come to an end! I received 15 interview invites, attended 10 interviews, accepted to 8 schools, and waitlisted at 2. I am so happy to say that I was accepted to my 2 top choices – UCSF and The Mayo Clinic!”

“My favourite part about working with Dr. Josie is that she listened to my story and worked with me to ensure that my personal statement was something I was proud of. I also really liked that we had access to a set of videos that helped me structure my whole application. It helped me stay organized and on track! I hope that you consider Dr. Josie when looking to share your story because she’ll help you bring out what makes YOU unique! Thank you!!!”

“I cannot express my gratitude for working with you on my Personal Statement. Still to this day when I read it, the essay jogs emotions within me. It’s amazing how important this piece was in standing out during the application cycle and how genuine and true it felt to my character. You were meant for writing and advising! Thank you!”

“I worked with Dr. Josie on iterations of both my personal statement and experiences section. Being part of the personal statement program helped tremendously in highlighting the specific components needed to build a coherent and compelling narrative.

She found the right words where I couldn't, asked the right questions to center what was most important while removing what was irrelevant, and always got back to me as promptly as possible.

It is an absolute pleasure to read back these iterations and see the development of thought—and the dream of becoming a physician. Dr. Josie is a wonderful thought partner in what can be an absolutely grueling process. I’m incredibly grateful.”

“Dr. Josie made the daunting task of writing my personal statement and secondary essays truly stress-free! She was always available to answer any questions, whether through text or Zoom sessions. Her personal statement program helped me write in a way that truly stood out to several interviewers and helped build conversation during my interviews. I truly think that without her help and guidance, my application would not have been as strong. Thank you Dr. Josie!”

“I couldn’t have gone through the application cycle without Dr. Josie. She truly was such a significant help throughout the cycle, and I am so glad that I found her. Her turnaround time and communication are more than you could ask for. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs help with their essays throughout the application cycle.”

“My experience with Josie was amazing. She reviewed the grammar of my residency personal statement and my entire ERAS application, particularly the description portion of the Experiences section. She also helped with letters of recommendation. Many of my classmates benefited from her guidance when brainstorming their personal statements. She is simply the person you want to contact when getting ready to apply to residency. Thank you Josie for all your help in making that ‘match’ a reality!”

“I am so appreciative and grateful to have worked with Dr. Josie for my graduate school personal statement. I had no idea where to start, especially since the essay asked for 500 words or less. There was so much I wanted to say but I was struggling with how to say it. The moment I started working with Dr. Josie, I felt extremely relieved throughout the process. Anytime I was stuck, she was there. Dr. Josie is responsive, professional, patient, and incredibly supportive. Thank you so much again!”

“Dr. Josie was the best decision I made when starting my graduate school applications! I had everything written in bullet points of what I wanted to highlight in my statements, but I was having a hard time compiling them concisely and making them flow well.

The personal statement that Dr. Josie helped me write ended up being one of my favorite pieces of writing. I am so thankful for her guidance and support throughout the process.”

“I wanted to let you know that I was accepted into UPenn Dental yesterday! They also awarded me the Dean’s Scholarship! The interviewers specifically pointed out parts of my essay that they absolutely loved — sections you helped me strengthen. Thank you so much for your help. With your support, my essays were so much stronger and captivated my story in a way that I struggled to capture myself. Thank you for believing in me and being such an amazing support.”

“I just wanted to thank you for your help with my pharmacy school personal statement. You were very professional, talented, and incredibly fast in replying! It was a pleasure working with you — I absolutely love my personal statement. It is exactly how I wanted it to be: specific, professional, and detailed. I honestly was lost in the beginning and didn’t know how to start. You’re a lifesaver! Thank you so much again (:”

“I was really stressed preparing for the application. Since I am an international medical graduate, everything was new for me—even writing formally in a foreign language. From writing a personal statement to drafting thank-you letters, Josie helped me with each part of my application while ensuring my best qualities stood out.

Working with Josie felt like she truly had my back throughout the entire process and gave me the relief I needed during such a stressful moment. She gave me confidence, and I’m sure I secured various interviews because of how my application was written.

She replies immediately, constantly reviews your work, and offers creative ideas to make the best out of your experiences. She ensures a holistic approach and a well-rounded application. Thank you so much!”

“If you are like me and the creative process of developing a great essay takes weeks, I can’t recommend Dr. Josie enough. She extracts key information from your experiences and helps you build a strong, solid draft which she’ll later polish. Throughout the whole process, she valued my input, which enabled us to craft an essay that effectively communicated exactly what I wanted the reader to understand. In just a couple of days, you can have a great essay that is still entirely yours.”

“I turned in my scholarship application and just wanted to say thank you so much for all of your help! Your step-by-step outline truly made writing so much easier than before. I absolutely loved working with you and only wish I had found you earlier during the application process!”

“Dr. Josie is amazing to work with. She gives thoughtful, detailed feedback and is very accommodating to your schedule. Definitely worth more than the price.”
