If you are here…

I’m guessing college admissions has started to feel overwhelming for your family. Whether you’re the student or the parent (or both, navigating it together), you’re not alone. There are over 5,000 colleges and universities in the U.S. The admissions landscape is constantly changing.

And it’s easy to feel like there’s too much to manage — essays, deadlines, testing, visits, choices — with too little support or time to figure it all out. Click below to join me in a free 30-minute consultation to discuss your goals.
