Welcome! I’m Dan Ulin, and at the age of 15, I dealt with the very same challenges your son or daughter faces today: trying to stand out, be heard, and get ahead in a noisy world. I was extremely fortunate; my parents found me a mentor, and through his guidance, I learned to communicate with precision and emotional resonance—a skill set that served me well throughout my academic and professional careers.
I mentor elite college-bound teens just like yours to gain admission to the schools of their dreams and achieve lifelong success. At the core of the program, I empower them to identify their unique on-paper and in-person “voices,” write and present with clarity and impact, and tap into a wellspring of self-confidence. These skills are absolutely essential when it comes to crafting phenomenal college application essays and succeeding in virtual and on-campus interviews.
Over the course of my 30 years as an educator, communications professional, and marketing executive, I’ve worked with hundreds of ambitious teenagers; taught creative writing at the prestigious Andover Academy; co-taught multinational management at The Wharton School; lectured at UCLA’s Anderson School of Management; and developed English-language curriculum materials for the Japanese high school system with Panasonic and the Ministry of Education in Osaka.
I’ve lived and worked in East and Southeast Asia, Europe, and the United States; founded and run my own highly successful marketing strategy firm; and leveraged the key communication skills I first acquired as a teen in working with and for such organizations as Mercedes-Benz, Rolls-Royce, Boys & Girls Clubs of America, Toyota, American Airlines, BMW, Wharton Executive Education, Airbus, State Farm, and The House of Blues.
I look forward to the prospect of helping your child achieve greatness!
