About


I created Zinjenzo to help students with their college applications, especially writing personal statements and activities lists. I want any student to be able to get professional help with their college application and have someplace to go to ask questions about admissions.

I have 23 years of experience working in colleges with 11 of those years doing admissions work. My resume is attached.

In addition to loving my work, I spend my free time bicycling in Seattle (where I live) and traveling to California for sunny bike rides. I have been lucky enough to travel to England on a scholarship with college students studying drama and since then, I am hoping to travel more (and I encourage my students to study abroad).

I am open to feedback, too, so if there’s anything you’d like to say about the website or my book, don’t hesitate to drop me a line at jschoen@zinjenzo.com. I’ll be happy to hear from you.

Read some real life testimonials on the right side from past students and other professionals that I have worked with.
