PHILOSOPHY

When working with me, students are guided on a path of self-discovery.  Through this process they are able to identify their essential values and set their individualized goals.  I believe that students succeed when they better understand why education is important to them.  Having clear, attainable goals provides students with direction and motivation.  When embarking on the college admissions process, it is my mission to help students discover and gain acceptance to the institutions that best fit their personal priorities and professional goals.
