Having worked in admission at various selective universities in New York City, I am familiar with what makes a successful application stand out to an admission committee and have intimate knowledge of the inner workings of admission offices.

I have nearly 20 years of experience in all areas of college admission and college counseling. Having worked in admission at various selective universities in New York City, I am familiar with what makes a successful application stand out to an admission committee and have intimate knowledge of the inner workings of admission offices. I also have extensive experience counseling high school students through their application process to highly selective and Ivy League institutions.

I specialize in personal statements and supplemental essay review to help students represent themselves authentically and in line with what colleges and universities seek in a successful applicant.

College Counseling

I am a school counselor at a specialized high school in New York City and work with students on all aspects of their applications to highly competitive colleges and universities. I hold a Master's Degree in Counseling from Fordham University where I completed an internship at another prestigious New York City high school assisting students in preparing their college applications. Prior to this experience, I worked for four years an Assistant Director of Admission at Fordham University and later spent three years in the same role at Teachers College - Columbia University. I also recently was the Director of College Guidance at a national non-profit organization working with high achieving, low-income students who are successfully applying to highly selective and Ivy League institutions.

Knowledgeable and patient tutor

Kate went above and beyond and helped my daughter revise her college essay as well as provided her with insightful information about the college admission process. She was patient and very knowledgeable. I would highly recommend her to those struggling with the college application process.
