College Advising
With college admissions becoming increasingly competitive, I help students ease their anxiety, differentiate themselves, and find their perfect fit.
As an advisor with a background in the arts, I prioritize helping students hone their writing and feel confident in their words. By focusing on saying something true to them rather than saying something they think admissions officers want to hear, not only do students leave as better writers, they create a more authentic application.
