I help public, private, and homeschooled students create clear, concise, and compelling college applications to a balanced list of right fit colleges. Additionally, I guide homeschool parents to craft counselor documents that explain, enhance, and enrich their student’s application.

When it comes to homeschooling, there are plenty of myths and misconceptions out there...
Does the thought of creating a high school transcript for your homeschooled teen fill you with anxiety?
It's April, the time when families evaluate their college options and financial aid packages.
I have coached over 700 students in high school essay classes designed to hone their writing skills.
Every student I have worked with has gained acceptance to a college they can afford that fits their academic, social, and career goals.
I visit, research, and learn to provide you with accurate and nuanced information.
Our collaboration begins with the "Explore" phase, where your student will complete thought-provoking exercises to uncover their unique strengths, interests, and aspirations. Together, we’ll identify the key factors, from potential majors and career paths to campus culture and academic rigor, that define a “best fit” college experience.
Next, we'll delve into the “Equip" phase, outfitting your student with the tools and strategies to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of colleges and universities. Students learn how to research and analyze each institution's offerings, compare them against their own priorities, and curate a balanced college list that aligns with their goals.
Finally, in the "Execute" phase, your student will receive dedicated guidance through the entire application process. From crafting a compelling personal statement and supplemental essays to optimizing their activities list and interviews, I'll provide in-depth feedback and support to help them present their authentic self in the most impressive light.
