Prepworks Logo_edited_edited_edited_edited_edited.png

Prepworks Education was founded in May 2023 by John Luger and Darren Lin. CPO Jonathan Harrow and CFO Graham Yu joined the team one year later, and together, they reached millions of students through educational videos on topics ranging from calculus to college applications.
 

After collectively earning admission to several of the nation's top universities, the Prepworks team decided to branch out into college consulting, where they now apply their expertise with modern college admissions to breathe new life into student applications.
