Hi, I’m Marie — founder of Ascent College Counseling 🤍

With over 10 years of experience working with students and families, I’ve seen just how overwhelming and high-pressure the college process can become. What should be an exciting season often turns into stress, confusion, and second-guessing.

That’s why I created Ascent College Counseling—built on the belief of motivating you to new heights.

I’m deeply passionate about helping students find the right fit school—not just one that looks good on paper, but one where they will grow, thrive, and feel at home. Every student has a unique story, and I love helping them uncover it and confidently share it throughout the application process.

My approach is both personal and intentional. I focus on building a comfortable, supportive relationship with each student—while also providing the structure and accountability they need to stay on track and reach their goals.

At Ascent College Counseling, I offer one-on-one support with:
• College list building
• High school course selection
• Personality/Career inventories
• Extracurricular development
• Application strategy
• Essay development
• Timeline planning
• Scholarship applications
• Accountability and guidance every step of the way

You don’t have to navigate this process alone.

✨ Let’s find the right fit —and motivate you to new heights.
