I have dedicated my career to educating others on the highly selective college admissions and financial aid processes.
I was a Senior Admissions Officer (AO) for Duke University where I read and evaluated applications from a dozen regions. I’ve had the privilege of working on all four sides of the desk--in high schools, in admissions & financial aid offices, in community-based organizations (CBOs), and as an independent educational consultant (both solo and part of large firms). My wide variety of experiences has given me a deep understanding of the intricacies of selective admissions. I help students find their points of distinction to craft applications that stand out.
Through my collective experience, I've read over 10K applications. In the last five years, my students have been accepted to all of the top 100 U.S. universities. 100% of my students have been accepted to 1 of their top 3 choices.
I am a registered member of NACAC. I frequently present on highly selective admissions to students and parents in the Caribbean, Asia, and the Americas.
