Your college admissions Counselor

As a First Generation college graduate with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology (SDSU), as well as a double Minor in Child & Family Development and Counseling & Social Change, and a Masters degree in School Counseling (SDSU), my mission is to make the college admissions process for high school and transfer students as seamless as possible. Reflecting on my own experiences as a high school student who felt like a deer in headlights, I made it my mission to provide this much needed support to all who seek it. Since 2012, I have been serving countless students in their journey through the complex educational systems across the US and in Canada. 

With a wide range of knowledge of career opportunities and paths, I have also helped students to think outside of the box when deciding on a career path that will fulfill their interests and lifestyle aspirations. My students seek experiences in and out of the classroom to not only prepare them for various professional degrees, but to ensure they are competitive for college admissions. 

Throughout my professional career, I have sought opportunities to work with a diverse population of high school and community college students. As a private college admissions counselor, I have worked with students across the US and overseas. I work one on one either in person or via Zoom with students through the college admissions process of highly sought out universities. 

Watching my student's grow and have a better understanding of who they are and who they want to be is by far my favorite part of what I do. It is a privilege to be able to support our youth along their journey to success. I am eager and confident in my ability to use my experience and knowledge to help more students and families like yours!
