Frequently Asked Questions

I love working with teenagers and am passionate about guiding students and their families through the college admissions process. With a boutique-style practice, I limit the number of students I work with each year to provide dedicated, focused support. My goal is to help students find colleges that align with their goals and to help them effectively share their personal stories with admissions counselors. My empathetic approach, diverse background, and expertise in college admissions allow me to offer a customized, structured program that simplifies the process and eases the stress of college planning.

The ideal time to start working with me depends on the student's needs and college goals. Many begin in 11th grade, while others start in early 12th grade. However, starting as early as 9th or 10th grade can be highly beneficial. Early planning allows me to help students develop a robust high school course plan, create a standardized testing timeline, and provide guidance for students to explore and deepen extracurricular involvement based on their interests. It also gives students more time to explore and identify colleges that align with their interests and goals. Regardless of when you and your student start working with me, I'll provide a customized plan to help your student identify colleges that are a strong match for their interests and goals and effectively share their personal story with admissions counselors.
