About Us
Started in 2020 with one desk.
Designed by someone
who went through it.
Kevin Kim went through schools in Korea, Australia and New Zealand. Finished preclinical at Auckland with an A+. Also studied preclinical at Melbourne and at Yonsei. He prepared for medical admissions, got through them, and then started teaching students on the same path.
One thing became clear from teaching: admissions information ages fast, and most extracurriculars end at words. So in 2020 he opened the company — not just to fix the information, but to build output that actually stays on the record.
Today, 40+ mentors and researchers work alongside him, each hired through a 5-to-1 interview round. People who work in clinics, labs and startups design the student's extracurricular work directly.
