How I work
I approach the college process as a collaboration: the student knows who they are and what goals they have for college, and I have the knowledge to help them put together a strong application that showcases their personality as effectively as possible. To me, building a strong relationship with each client is the foundation of being a successful college counselor, as that trust and understanding is essential to providing personalized, insightful advice.

An excellent review, delivered promptly. She provided in-depth feedback, including thoughtful wordings/re-phrasings of paragraphs. Among all the reviewers I've worked with, she's definitely one of the best. Her grasp of grammar is flawless, and her feedback is highly detailed.
