College Explored
Planning for college is a unique, exciting opportunity to shape and launch your future. But with the college admissions process more complex and competitive than ever before, the road to higher education isn't one you should walk alone. As a trained and experienced college admissions consultant, I guide students of all aspirations through a creative, rewarding journey of self-discovery as they build a strategic plan for getting into the colleges of their choice. My proven process helps clients receive acceptances to the top colleges we all know by name, as well as many excellent schools we don't often hear about. I specialize in empowering students to find and be accepted to the colleges where they will thrive.
I work with clients in person in the San Francisco Bay Area or by telephone and email throughout the U.S. Contact me to learn how I can help you make the most of your educational journey.

Clients Are Saying:
"I can't thank you enough for all of the help and kindness you've shown me over the last year. The essays I wrote under your mentorship were some of the best writings that I've produced, and I was able to use them for so many different applications and scholarships. I'm so juiced to enter this next phase of my life!"
-Amanda, George Washington University Class of 2013
"You helped me in a lot more ways than I could have imagined. You helped me find colleges that were right for me, yet encouraged me to go beyond my own goals. You helped me with the technical parts of my applications and essays, and were an inside source for little hints and tricks that other counselors don't know. Without your help and motivation, I would never be where I am today."
-Laura, Harvard College Class of 2013

Why Hire A College Counselor?
* Discover Your College Opportunities
There are over 3,000 colleges & universities in the U.S. alone, but we usually only hear about a few. A college counselor can help you explore options you may not have considered; your perfect college may be one you are yet to discover!
* Maximize Your Chances of Acceptance
The admissions process is complex and highly competitive. The assistance of an experienced guide can make the difference and distinguish your application from the competition.
* Get the Best Education for Your $$$
College is costly. A counselor can help you select schools that fit your profile, goals and budget. A well-crafted application can also give you a competitive edge in qualifying for scholarship funding, saving you thousands of dollars in tuition and fees.
* Minimize College Planning Stress
Planning for college can be stressful for both students and their families. A counselor can relieve stress by providing accurate information, helpful advice and unique insights into the admissions process. By alleviating "college conflicts" between teens & their families, a counselor can make the planning experience one of excitement, reflection and growth for all involved.
