“Through the process of diving deep into your interests and your unique talents and strengths, I can help you know yourself better. When you have a good sense of yourself, you are more likely to experience personal fulfillment and achieve success on your own terms”
My Approach
As a college admissions consultant, I can help you know yourself better – uncover what you really are as a person, and what activities and fields speak to your passions and strengths. I work with you on academic planning, activities planning, development of life skills, to help you “launch” your future. With respect to applying for colleges and prep schools, I will help make appropriate school lists, brainstorm and edit your personal statement for college and universities as well as finalize your college applications. Afterwards I advise you on your options and choices when you get your results.

Testimonial
Justin helped our son throughout the entire college application process. He guided him from the very beginning with the essay writing, through the submission process, and continued to assist once the acceptances started rolling in. Thanks to Justin’s knowledge and guidance, my son had acceptances from the majority of the schools he applied to. Subsequently, we had Justin coach our daughter through her college applications; knowing she was in great hands, our daughter owned the process and it went smoothly, with results that exceeded our expectations. Thank you, Justin, for helping our kids get to where they needed to be.
