Personalized guidance for the college admissions journey and transition to campus
About
I help students aim high and find colleges where they will truly thrive and be successful. With a proactive, student-centered approach to college admissions, I take on a limited number of families so each receives my full attention, and they can rely on me to stay on top of the details.
Our work together can begin as early as eighth grade, when students choose their first high school courses, and continues through applications and the transition to campus.
After an earlier career in management consulting and finance, helping clients make high-stakes decisions, I came to college advising, drawn in part by guiding my own child through admissions, and fell in love with higher education along the way. At UCLA, I completed the college counseling program with distinction. As an active member of the leading professional associations in college counseling, NACAC, HECA, and WACAC, I stay current on changes in admissions so families don’t have to.
