Bio:
As a first-generation college student, I was once just as mystified as you are by the college admissions landscape in the U.S. That is why I am committed to supporting students and families in navigating these challenges. My experiences span from helping students craft individualized college admission plans as a college counselor, launching college counseling programs as college counseling director, and structuring curriculum and academic advising programs as academics director. Regardless of my role, I have always valued my connections with students and families. Helping students blossom to their fullest potential will always be my primary goal!
Counseling Style:
I believe the college planning process offers students many opportunities to explore their interests, hone in on their strengths, and reflect on their identity. I serve as a guide to help students capture these opportunities for growth and best showcase their unique selves during college admissions.
Personal:
In my spare time, I enjoy putting together puzzles, checking out art museums, cross-stitching, painting, hiking, and hanging out with my cat.
