This site is for families and students - rising juniors and seniors - struggling to think about college, visit colleges, or talk about cost and fit. I invite you to discuss a full service approach that will make the first step, or all steps, of the college process happen.

You do not need to pay a college consultant. All of the information that a student and family need is online and free. Most college websites provide best practice including sample essays. State University guidelines can be complex - spend time here if cost is an issue. Pull together items in the Information List Catalog section before getting started. If this remains overwhelming, set up a free session for help.

My mission is to create a narrative for any family, including those with teens that may not be college ready. This includes completing the application process, receiving acceptances, and evaluating at that time whether a gap year makes sense. I will note that teens that do not invest in their own applications tend not to succeed in college, however, this full-service approach provides parents and teens a narrative for the college process, and ultimate college acceptances, that provide options, calm, and hopefully excitement, for all.

About me

I am a full-time Manhattan banker by trade and mother of 2. I experienced my own teens, and other brilliant young men and women, struggling with the college mayhem of today. I am here to provide a solution to families and teens that are overwhelmed with today's somewhat absurd college selection, application and decision process. The product on offer is a free 30-minute consultation. From there you can decide if my offering is a fit for your teen and family. Cost can be $100 or $100,000 depending on your needs.
