Reasons we make a difference
(1) Help you, your child, spouse, or family member determine where and when to apply to school- considering, financial budgets and the opportunities that each school will present to yourself and your loved ones.
(2) Develop an individualized admissions timeline- making sure you meet deadlines for the Application, Orientation, Residency, Financial Aid, and Graduation. Then send an email, and text alert reminders to make sure you’re always on top of them.
(3) Interview preparation: If you apply to colleges with an interview, I will help you prep! As I mentioned my professional background is in Higher Education, so not only is getting students into college a specialty of mine but getting them out of college and employed is an invaluable piece.

(5) Suggest how to solicit the most effective letters of recommendation from teachers and counselors, including supplemental recommendations.

(7) Selecting appropriate extracurriculars: I can help you identify which extracurriculars will impress colleges, help with college scholarships, but most importantly while still playing to your strengths.

(9) Planning visits to colleges: I can help you plan useful and informative college visits that aren't touristy and are designed to increase your understanding of the University of your choice.
(10) Accompanying you through the process no matter if it’s meeting with admission offices, advisors, professors, or deans, you’ll be able to call on me to be present and help you navigate those meetings. I will make sure you know what questions to ask and what details are important to you.
Those are just some of the many services that go into college advising. If you need help with any of the above—or anything else—simply message me here and let's chat. I love helping students through each step of the college application journey and hope I can help you too!
