Background
Bio | Hey! My name is Daniel and I’m a Stanford student who was accepted on a full ride scholarship. I am a low-income full-need student so I personally know how hard it is to navigate college admissions and I’d love to help you whether its a college essay or scholarship application. In my free time I love to watch anime, bake and play video games. I’d love to know more about you and help you anyway I can! -KangDaniel (my korean name) |
