KATALYST EDUCATIONAL CONSULTING SERVICES
My Process
Refrain from settling for a one-size-fits-all approach. I provide a comprehensive range of college admissions services you can customize to match your unique aspirations.
Let's build your dream application together!
​
I prioritize working directly with students, but solid parental involvement is essential for a successful application. We can create a supportive environment to guide the student through the process.
​
The earlier we start, the better! By working with students throughout high school, I deeply understand their goals and tailor my advice for a standout application.
​
Ready to chart your college journey? I am here to help!
I offer personalized academic and college advising consultations to fit your needs. Choose between in-person meetings (coming soon for local students!) or convenient virtual consultations via Zoom. I aim to make your college journey as smooth and successful as possible by aligning with school, athletic, and work schedules.
