In this crazy, busy world of immediacy and Instant Pots, I sometimes wonder if we are the ones in the pressure cooker....or if our kids are.  We are bombarded with plenty of opinions about, well--everything--and education is no exception. We all want to feel like we are doing the “right” thing, but how can we narrow down the abundance of information without feeling totally overwhelmed and completely missing the mark? In a world where information doubles every year, the answer lies in finding an expert.  That’s where I come in. With a background in secondary education, cognitive training, test prep, and college counseling, my goal is to guide families as they navigate the education process, ultimately helping students find the "right fit" college--academically, financially, socially, and spiritually--with less stress for everyone. Along the way, my objective is to support students as they make their mark now, not simply creating a persona they want to present to colleges, but embracing the real version of their best selves as they strive for academic excellence, invest in passionate causes, and participate in stimulating extracurriculars. Join me, and let’s work together to lift the lid on the pressure cooker!
