Hi! I'm a 3-time academic and scholar, having attended McGill University (B.A. in International Development Studies and Political Science), University of the Arts London (M.A. in Media, Communications and Critical Practice) and the Harvard Graduate School of Education (Ed.M. in Learning Design, Innovation and Technology). I'm excited to talk to you about the real stuff! The hidden curriculum of a four-year undergraduate degree at one of the best universities in the world where you will not only get a phenomenal education, but also have the most exciting and fun college experience you could ever dream of! McGill is in the heart of a cozy and beautiful college town— its the perfect place for sports, music concerts, parties, museums, parks and hikes, midnight go-karting, student discount movies on Tuesdays, and the best affordable street food spots to hit with friends. Let me tell you all about how to pick the right courses, with professors who will be invested in your dreams, enjoy a great city and make best friends for life! Curious about grad school, in media or education? I've done both! At the two BEST schools in the world to study either! Again, I've got all the city-life insider secrets and hacks on London and Boston/Massachusetts, and I graduated from both UAL and Harvard with straight As. So, who better to tell you all about the real day-to-day life experiences at these schools and their competitors, than me? Still wondering if you should do this, book a 15-minute free chat, and let's see if we can make your decision easier! :)
