Our Story
Silicon is the 14th element on the periodic table. 14Gate Advising was founded to help students navigate the gates of Silicon Valley— an ecosystem long known for its high barriers to entry.
Hey, I'm Anurag. I'm from Franklin, Massachusetts, and I was the first student in my school's history to be accepted to UC Berkeley. In high school, I took a school record-breaking 17 AP classes and pushed myself to the limit. Just two years ago, I was a lifeguard at the YMCA. Today, I'm an incoming Software Engineer intern at Amazon.
Over the past four years, I’ve had the privilege of advising more than 130 students—helping them navigate everything from crafting standout college applications to landing internships at VC-Backed Startups. As a certified college advisor, I’ve broken college admissions and landing internships down to a science.
Our Students
Our greatest pride comes from the achievements of our students. Each student brings unique talents, perspectives, and dreams to our program.
First-Gen to Uber
“As a first-gen student, I constantly underestimated myself— and that showed in my resume, in interviews, and in the way I talked about my experiences. Anurag taught me how to speak about my work with confidence and prepped me thoroughly for interviews. He even took the time to redo my entire resume for me."

At 15, I didn’t think I had a shot—no job experience, still in high school. But working with Anurag changed everything. He helped me navigate the process and ultimately land multiple internship offers. I chose to work with Vision IV, a 4M valued synthetic diamond manufacturer, and it’s been an incredible opportunity.

Arroyo High School | Business Development Intern
I matched with Anurag through Matriculate and with his help I was accepted on a full-ride scholarship to Princeton for Computational Neuroscience! He then helped me land an internship at AppLearn, a 36M valued leading digital adoption platform that enhances user interaction with enterprise software through analytics and support tools.
Kaung S.
Princeton University '29 | Web Development Intern
I worked with Anurag on recruiting, resume, cover letter, and interviews. His prep helped me go miles ahead of my peers; my recruiter said I was one of the best interviews she'd ever had, and I wouldn't have been able to acheive that without Anurag. I joined Project Destined, a leading social impact platform training finacial literacy.
