Admissions and enrollment support for education-focused organizations

BIVI Consulting partners with admissions teams and education organizations that need experienced support during high-stakes or high-volume periods. With deep experience in PhD admissions at UC Berkeley and later in a joint UC Berkeley–UCSF doctoral program, I step in as a collaborative partner, not a task-only vendor.
