Our Clients Say:
"It was such a joy to watch Grace complete her college applications last night. I am SO incredibly grateful for your help, guidance and support through this process. Not only did Grace enjoy working with you, but you made for a peaceful and joyful college application experience. (In other words, no stress and no nagging her to get stuff done.) I especially appreciate all the new-to-us schools you brought to her attention — except for our state school, all of the schools she's applying to are a direct result of your expertise, tools and conversations with Grace. There are some really wonderful schools on the list, and I'm excited to see where her college journey takes her. Thank you so much for your patience and flexibility in honoring her timing and flow on this. You quickly got her going even though we started late in the process. With deep gratitude and appreciation!"- Shanno J., parent
