College Counseling: Clarity and Confidence for the Next Step

Navigating the college process is more challenging than ever. With thousands of programs, changing admission trends, and a growing number of alternative pathways, many families are asking: How do we make the right decision for our child’s future?

That’s where expert guidance makes all the difference.

I have been advising families for over twenty years in the college counseling process. As an educational consultant, I work closely with high school students and their families to simplify the college journey. Whether your child is unsure about where to apply, what to major in, or how to stand out on applications, I provide personalized strategies rooted in insight, empathy, and proven success.

What I Offer

• Strategic College Planning: We create a customized list of colleges that match your student’s academic profile, personality, goals, and financial considerations.
• Application Coaching: From crafting standout essays to navigating extracurricular narratives and interview prep, I guide students every step of the way.
• Major and Program Guidance: I help clarify which academic paths are most aligned with your child’s interests, future career goals, and evolving market demands.
• Timeline and Accountability: With clear deadlines and structured planning, students stay on track, reducing stress and last-minute scrambles.
