About

My goal in working with students is to smooth the process and expand their possibilities. I partner with students with the goal of making our work manageable, fulfilling, reflective, and non-stressful. I aim to educate families along the way and partner as the student refines their aspirations and goals. 

My experience working with students and their families and my educational background enable me to bring these unique competencies to this process:

• A focus on data to drive decision making
• The empathy of a mother who helped her own children through this process and experienced some of the worries that many parents feel
• A process orientation and the ability to gently cajole to keep students on track when needed
• A love of education and colleges and their transformative power
• A healthy skepticism and a business orientation toward this industry 

I enjoy working with all types of students and believe that each student possesses miraculous attributes and will find a wonderful educational home after high school. I have worked with students applying to some of the most selective universities in the U.S. as well as students applying to colleges that are not as selective. I have experience working with students in athletic recruiting and in preparing arts supplements. I also have experience working with students who are supported with 504 Plans and/or IEPs in high school and helping them find a college fit. 

There is a need for calm, honest, transparent, and realistic advice when planning for college. I have witnessed students not receiving the counsel that would have led them to a college that fit them better and helped them to avoid extra years of college, transfers, and/or exorbitant debt. My goal is to help students achieve their best-fit college outcome in a calm manner that retains the excitement that the journey should entail. 

I meet with students on Zoom, primarily, and serve students throughout the United States.
