Work with Kang Consulting: ISEF Winning Research Mentors & Personal College Consultants

I didn't grow up with connections, counselors, or college coaches. I grew up in a two-bedroom apartment in Guam, in a financially unstable household, with parents who filed for Chapter 7 bankruptcy and zero exposure to elite academic institutions. There was no blueprint — so I built my own.

I just knew what colleges wanted to see, and in the most difficult admissions cycle, I was able to gain admission to Stanford and Ivy League schools like Yale on full ride scholarships totaling $1,000,000+ in the hardest admissions cycle yet. Experienced in various admission portals and approaching college admissions through a unique thematic lens, I have personally admitted kids into UPenn Wharton and other prestigious Ivy Leagues before even applying to university myself.

That experience didn't just change my life — it shaped my mission.

Today, I lead Kang Consulting, a personalized research and college admissions practice built entirely through referrals and student success. I've helped students from all backgrounds — from underserved communities to international Olympiad winners — gain admission into Harvard, MIT, Stanford, Yale, and Princeton, and win top honors at ISEF, Regeneron STS, and other elite global research competitions.

I'd like to show you where I'm different, as Daniel Kang's little brother: how I see myself as an outlier in college admissions. I wasn't a cookie-cutter applicant, like most HYPSM admits or even my brother. I didn't have a perfect 4.0 GPA, an amazing SAT/ACT score, an award like First at ISEF, or a recommendation letter from someone extremely distinguished.

By navigating colleges from a low-income household, growing up with a brother who was a STEM whiz having a planet named after him from MIT in highschool, I had to chart my own path interning at the National Institute of Health (NIH), pursuing field oriented marine biology research and even pursuing novel extracurriculars like translating Korean webtoon.

My Stanford admissions officer quoted my creative writing ability expressing that she was "absolutely blown away" and I'm ready to help you get glowing impressions from admissions readers, helping you every step throughout the entire college application process.

My brother and I now both plan to make your dreams come true and boost you to new heights in career prospects and into Ivy League education.

I will personally aid you in the most prestigious extracurriculars in STEM competitions like Regeneron ISEF, help in navigating non-STEM approaches for college admissions, and tailor your extracurriculars and essays for your dream schools. Hopefully, I'll be the make or break as you apply to your wanted institution.
