Approach
I believe the journey to college should be as unique as the student taking it. In an increasingly competitive landscape, navigating the college application process can feel daunting. But with the right guidance and mindset, it can also be a meaningful opportunity for personal growth and discovery.
What sets my approach apart is the depth of experience I bring from years leading college counseling programs in high schools and reviewing applications for a selective university. I use that experience to offer students a clear, strategic approach—helping them craft authentic applications that reflect who they are and stand out in a competitive admissions landscape.
​
I don’t offer one-size-fits-all advice. I take time to understand each student’s interests, strengths, and aspirations—then build a plan aligned with their goals. Whether they’re aiming for a highly selective university or seeking a school where they’ll feel at home, I serve as their mentor, advocate, and ally throughout the process.
​
With a personalized approach and a deep commitment to sparking motivation and clarity in students, I aim to not only reduce stress for families—but to make the journey to college an enriching and fulfilling experience.
Tailored Strategy
Every student brings a unique combination of strengths, interests, and goals to the college process—and I believe their application strategy should reflect that. I take the time to truly get to know each student: their academic passions, extracurricular commitments, personal values, and long-term aspirations. Drawing on years of experience, I help students make informed decisions and craft an individualized plan that highlights what sets them apart. This is not one-size-fits-all guidance—it's thoughtful, personalized support at every step.
FOCUS ON FIT
Finding the right college isn’t just about rankings or name recognition—it’s about discovering a place where your child can truly thrive. I take a holistic approach to college selection, considering academic offerings, campus culture, social dynamics, location, and student support services. With deep knowledge of a wide range of institutions, I guide students toward schools that align with their goals, values, and learning styles—ensuring a strong foundation for personal and academic growth.
Personal commitment
I build meaningful relationships with every student I work with, grounded in trust, respect, and genuine care. Their goals become my goals. I’m deeply invested in their success—offering steady guidance, honest feedback, and thoughtful encouragement from our first meeting through final decisions. Whether we’re shaping essays or navigating results, I’m there every step of the way as a dedicated partner in the process.
Motivation
The college application process can feel overwhelming, and staying motivated isn’t always easy. That’s why my approach goes beyond guidance—I work to ignite genuine excitement and curiosity about each student’s future. By helping them explore their passions, set meaningful goals, and envision the possibilities ahead, I keep students focused, confident, and energized to embrace the challenges of the journey.
