Ramya Annam: Junior College Admissions Counselor

Hi! My name is Ramya Annam, and I am one of the Junior Counselors here at Insight Education. I currently live in Santa Clara, but I’ve had the privilege of living across the country, growing up and through my education. I’ve lived in Texas, Virginia and most recently, Massachusetts. 
 
After graduating from USC with a degree in Psychology, I entered the world of Sales and Marketing, for big companies like Whole Foods Market and 49ers, and for smaller nonprofits and startups. A few years in, I knew I wanted to do something more impactful with my life, and so I followed my lifelong dreams of becoming an educator by enrolling in graduate school at Boston University.
 
At BU, I was involved in many organizations, such as 826 Boston, a nonprofit aimed to bridge the literacy gap for underserved students. I fell in love with helping students find their voice and express their true selves in creative and authentic ways. In May 2020, I graduated with a Master’s in Educational Leadership and Policy Studies.
 
At Insight, I help students express their ambitions and dreams through essay writing, interview prep, and more. The world of college admissions is ever-changing, and I am grateful for the opportunity to be a part of your student’s journey to success!
 
When I’m not reading essays, I’m usually gardening, hiking, or thrift shopping. I look forward to meeting you!
