Who we are

“We’re not your typical admissions consultants. We are lawyers, bankers, doctors, and engineers who earned admission to — and graduated from — some of the world’s most selective institutions. We do not manufacture profiles. We develop future peers.
— The Alma Team

THE TEAM

Our Team

Each of our consultants has graduated from a top university and works 1-on-1 with families across every stage — pre-application strategy, extracurricular planning, personal statement editing, and interview preparation.

Counselor

Kevin He

Counselor · Business & Finance

Education

  • Columbia University (B.S.)

Kevin is a former Wall Street banker who works closely with students drawn to the sciences, business, and finance. Drawing on firsthand knowledge of the Ivy League landscape, he positions applicants early — with the coursework, experiences, and signals that distinguish a competitive Ivy candidate.

Counselor

Joshua Park, M.D.

Counselor · Pre-Med & BS/MD

Education

  • Case Western Reserve University (M.D.)
  • University of California, Berkeley (B.A.)

Josh is a practicing physician who works with pre-med students — including applicants to BS/MD programs. He prepares students to thrive in high-stakes moments like BS/MD interviews, and to navigate the distinctive demands of a sciences-focused application, from research and clinical exposure to thoughtful coursework selection.

Counselor

Peter Lee

Counselor · Engineering & Applied AI

Education

  • University of California, Berkeley (B.S.)

Peter is a software engineer at Amazon with nearly a decade of industry experience. He works closely with tech-interested students on rigorous passion projects and extracurriculars — guiding them through context engineering, AI agents, and applying AI across fields like healthcare and law. Students leave with both a portfolio and a clearer view of how a career in tech actually takes shape.

True Ivy League specialists–Ben provides incredible insight into the strategy it takes to get into top-tier schools. He showed us a perspective on applications that we didn't think about–meticulously defining our brand, focusing on our persuasiveness, and ultimately, helping us submit the perfect apps.
