About Me: An independent educational consultant since 2004 with a client base that spans the globe, I have extensive training in college, transfer and graduate school admissions and have been awarded by the American Institute of Certified Educational Planners (AICEP) the distinction of Certified Educational Planner (CEP), which recognizes professionals who have achieved the highest level of competence in educational planning. I received my Certificate in College Counseling, with distinction, from UCLA and I have visited over 350 college campuses across North America. I am available for one-on-one virtual advising (my students often have me on speed-dial!). My approach: Each student is unique; therefore, I utilize a holistic approach that considers their specific needs, strengths, and potential challenges in determining a list of excellent fit schools, developing a customized admission plan and timeline. I offer support in visiting and evaluating schools, choosing a major and preparing applications including one of my favorite aspects of the process, brainstorming and editing essays.
