As Founder and Principal Consultant of MyCollegeFit, my passion is guiding students on their academic journey. I strive to bring a calm objective voice to the often stressful college admissions process, helping students discover their strengths and engage in their personal and academic interests. As an objective third party, I serve as a  bridge between parent and teen.

My work experience comes from both sides of the admissions process and spans over two decades. I have first hand knowledge of numerous colleges and universities often visiting over 25 campuses a year. As the mother of two college graduates who have successfully launched, one of whom was a D-I athlete, I enjoy bringing all facets of my professional and personal life experiences to MyCollegeFit. 

Highlights of my career include:

• Working in undergraduate admissions at Duke University, The College of William & Mary, Dickinson College, and the University of Richmond.
• Traveling extensively to high schools across the country to attract and matriculate competitive students to the above institutions, often times evaluating nearly 1,000 applications each admissions cycle.
• Serving as Director of College Counseling at a college preparatory school where I worked with students through the entire college search, application and selection process.
• Maintaining an extensive network of college admissions professionals and counseling colleagues by regularly attending professional conferences and touring over 25 colleges a year.
