Services: Private College Counseling
Counseling high school or returning students to help make academic and career decisions by matching:
Your interests and strengths to the University or College
Career and income goals, scholarship, internship (volunteer or paid), shadowing, etc.
The realities of admissions, cost, and competitiveness
By identifying your interests, personality, and skills, together we can explore realistic academic & career paths, salary expectations, and graduate school requirements. I place strong emphasis on helping students recognize their preferred academic pathways, whether technical, analytical, creative, business, healthcare, or social sciences, while also evaluating the requirements, passion, discipline, and commitment needed to achieve their academic and professional goals.

Personal Statement: I have been helping high school and community college students write, edit and submit their personal essays to the universities of their choice. Writing is my passion and I enjoy helping others bring their ideas on paper, embellish them and express themselves in ways that are distinguishable from the help of AI.
I work well with:
High school students- senior or junior year
Community College students who want to Transfer to a 4-year University
I reserve the right to refuse services to anyone. I work well with students with whom I can make a connection, i.e. we can listen to each other and cooperate.
