Additional Info

Description of Services : Provide guidance on a four year plan, high school coursework, extracurricular activities, test planning, college visits and general college preparation guidance to freshmen, sophomore and junior students and their families.
Support junior/senior students with college list preparation through the use of personality, aptitude and interest surveys. Assist with college visit planning, timelines, essay brainstorming and development, college applications, scholarship applications and financial aid forms. Meet with and support the students and families through the entire college application process and ultimately guide them through the evaluation of college acceptances to make a final decision. The goal of my services is to help students find the right 'fit'-a school where they will thrive.

Description of Experience : I have slowly built my practice over the years; from year one where I assisted 3 students to the current class of 2021 where I am working with 28 seniors, as well as a full class of freshmen, sophomores and juniors. When I am not working with students I am attending conferences, watching webinars, reading articles, visiting colleges and interacting with college admissions representatives to learn more about their schools. Each year I host a Case Studies workshop and college fair in the community, with a colleague, to educate the community on the college admissions process. Every year I work with a range of students with all levels of grades, test scores and interests. I am constantly learning and I believe this is critical in order to succeed.
