I've worked so hard for this day. 🫠 But the love I have for each one of them made it worth it. Here's to confetti moments, cowbells in the hallways, and gold glitter stars! Congratulations, class of 2026 - it's time to launch! 🧑‍🎓

With a POTS diagnosis that led her to embrace life in a wheelchair/bed due to extreme fatigue, dizziness, and rapid heart rate - this strong young woman has faced some cloudy days. She and another client navigated the college application process this year while battling symptoms from this unrelenting chronic autonomic nervous system disorder. Their strength to walk across the graduation stage in a few weeks is unmatched. 💪

Working with them, led me to develop a detailed guide with resources, best practices with campus tours, paperwork, and accommodations in college for students facing medical, physical, and social-emotional challenges. They have to be thoughtful about their college lists, have proactive conversations around support, and be equipped with self-advocacy skills especially after turning 18! From medication management to establishing a care team for appointments, it can be a lot to navigate. We can help!

Equity is one of my core values. 🟰 It has been an honor to have served as a volunteer application reader and finalist interviewer for the prestigious Gates Scholarship for many years.

The Gates Scholarship program is based on evidence that by eliminating the financial barriers to college, a last-dollar scholarship can enable high-potential, low-income students to excel in their course work, graduate college, and continue to be leaders throughout their lives. 👨‍🎓👩‍🎓🧑‍🎓

I have met remarkable students whose resilience and strength have both positively impacted others and inspired me personally. I'm so grateful to the Gates Foundation for their philanthropic approach to promoting educational access. ✨

I have witnessed the power of life-changing full scholarships in the lives of students throughout my career. I just want more students to know about and take advantage of these incredible opportunities. Reach out to learn more! 📨
