I am very proud to be a senior advisor at ZhishiQ and have had the pleasure of clients gaining successful entry into many fine international universities including London School of Economics, Imperial College, Penn U, Colombia and Chinese University of HK.

I have edited numerous disciplines; physics, architecture and planning, biomedical informatics, environmental engineering, marketing, education and pedagogy, public policy. When students get into their dream university programs, this of course makes me very happy and is why I do this job ;)
