💡I specialize in helping high school students discover opportunities, feel empowered, and successfully position themselves for college admissions and personal growth.
💡My passion is helping students explore their passions, achieve success, learn from failure, navigate twists and turns, and enjoy their journey from high school to college and beyond.
💡My tagline is "Enjoy Your Journey" because I personally believe that the most important lesson in high school is to "ENJOY it."
💡I chose a lightbulb for my logo to symbolize the "aha" lightbulb moments along the high school journey of self-discovery. I hope my students can say "aha" out loud multiple times as they explore their interests and seek out opportunities.
🎉The confetti on my Facebook cover represents celebration (with a pop of color). All students deserve to be celebrated. Success comes in many forms and looks "uniquely different" on everyone.
📌I have carefully crafted a bulletin board of personalized services that can be tailored to any grade level - I do advocate starting early. Services include the following topics:
1️⃣ College Admissions Deep Dive: Ask me about my Cake Talk. The process is messy and rewarding. 🍰
2️⃣ Interests Exploration: I am a big advocate of using Community Resources. There is a lot of opportunity in your own backyard. I enjoy connecting students with experiences and resources they aren't even aware of.
3️⃣ Communication Development: Contact your All Star Team. They are waiting for you to reach out.
4️⃣ Self-Promotion: Advocating for yourself works wonders. Keep track of your experiences - you will need to reference them many times as you go through high school and especially when filling out college/scholarship/job applications.
5️⃣ Interview Preparation: That seat at the table can belong to you. Be prepared, don't be scared.
6️⃣ Future Planning: Lots to think about. I'm a seasoned soundboard and love to brainstorm.
✅ For the past 8 years, I have been empowering high school friends and family (including my own 3 children) to self-discover their passions, communicate with confidence, form connections, use school/community resources, and proactively prepare themselves for the college admissions process. Due to increased community interest, I am expanding my offerings to help more students.
✅ Before my empowerment era, I uncovered marketing insights and managed research projects for Fortune 500 companies for 15 years.
✅ Think of me as a Chief Opportunity Officer (COO), marketing enthusiast, and professional researcher, who loves to champion student success.
💫 I am a firm believer that starting to explore interests and learning about the college admissions process early will give students opportunity to finish stronger.
💫I promote trial and error, embracing community resources, and self-advocating.
💫 I love when students consider "the road less traveled."
🔃 I am not a substitute for your school counselor or your teachers. Your high school offers many resources, get to know them all - I can advise you on how to do that.
🔃 I am not a financial planner. I will defer college affordability questions to the experts. I welcome the opportunity to discuss applying for scholarships - every dollar helps.
🔃 I am happy to advise you on a standardized testing plan, but I do not personally offer test preparation.
🔃 I will not fill out your college applications for you. I will help you discover your superpower to do that yourself.
💰Every student is unique, I offer hourly rates and custom service packages.

⭐️Enjoy Your Journey⭐️
