I graduated from Harvard University with a degree in Economics, and I served as an alumni interviewer for twenty years before becoming a college counselor. I earned a Certificate in College Counseling, with Distinction, from UCLA. I then worked at the Waring School in Beverly for two years with the Director of College Counseling, where I helped students complete their applications, guided both students and parents through the process, conducted mock interviews, and hosted college admissions representatives several times a week throughout the fall.

I became an independent counselor to provide more individual attention, guiding students through all aspects of the college admissions journey. I founded C3 Collaborative with two colleagues, where we each work with our own clients. We are part of a regional group of both independent and school-based counselors, sharing information and support, visiting colleges together, and sponsoring workshops for families on topics such as Paying for College and Transitioning to College. I am a member of IECA, the nation’s largest and most recognized organization of Independent Educational Consultants. I attend professional conferences each year and read extensively on matters of higher education.

I visit many colleges each year, where I speak to students, admissions officers, and faculty members to learn about the programs and culture of each school. Understanding the feeling of a college helps me guide students in their decisions.
