My College Consultant Services
Guidance for Every Step of the Process
From the first transcript review to the final application submission, I'm with your family at every stage — offering clarity, structure, and support tailored to who your teen is.
How I Can Help
Every Student is Different. Every College List Should Be Too.
I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to college admissions. When we work together, I take the time to understand who your teen actually is -- their strengths, their interests, their goals -- and build a process around that. My job is to guide your family through every stage of this journey with clarity, organization, and a lot less stress.
Inside The Process
What We'll Work on Together
Preliminary Review
We start by looking at the full picture -- transcript analysis, course selection, and standardized testing -- so we can build a realistic, thoughtful plan from the beginning.
College List Development
This is where fit-over-prestige comes to life. I research and help select colleges based on your teen's credentials, interests, and what they're actually looking for in a college experience.
Organization & Timelines
One of the most overwhelming parts of the college process is simply keeping up with it all. I help students and families build a clear organizational system and timeline so nothing falls through the cracks -- and so the process feels manageable from start to finish.
Essays & Personal Statements
From brainstorming to final draft, I work closely with students on their personal statement and supplemental essays -- helping them find their voice without taking it over.
Student Activities & Resume
I help students identify and articulate their extracurricular involvement in a way that's clear, honest, and genuinely reflects who they are.
Applications
We'll develop a timeline that keeps everything manageable, and I'll provide thorough review and feedback on every application before it's submitted.
Campus Visits
I'll help you coordinate visits and give you the tools to make the most of every campus you see.
The College Interview
I coach students on how to present themselves confidently, including mock interviews so they walk in prepared.
