I am an experienced College Counselor holding a Master’s Degree in School Counseling and a former University Admissions Counselor at two major universities. Over the past several years, I have worked extensively with high school students ranging from 9th graders beginning early college exploration to seniors finalizing applications in both high school counseling offices and individual one-on-one settings. My background in college admissions on the university side gives me an insider’s perspective into holistic application review, showing me exactly how colleges evaluate transcripts, essays, and extracurricular involvement. I stay deeply connected to national higher education trends through leadership roles with the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC), the Rocky Mountain ACAC Executive Board, University of Utah Counselor Advisory Board, and the University of Arizona Honors College Counselor Advisory Board.
My tutoring approach is student-centered, highly structured, and collaborative. My services are comprehensive and vary from strategic college list building, brainstorming essay topics, drafting essays, polishing application activity descriptions, navigating financials, housing applications, and everything in between. In our one-on-one sessions, I focus on helping students articulate their authentic story and highlight their personal strengths so their applications genuinely resonate with admissions teams during review. By combining insider admissions knowledge with supportive counseling techniques, my goal is to reduce application stress, keep students organized and on schedule, and ensure families feel confident every step of the way.
