As founder of College and Beyond, I have created a simple 4-Step Proprietary Process that can fit every family's needs and budget. I have spent the past 15 years perfecting this process and have served 100's parents and students across the United States and Internationally as well as they navigate their way through every aspect of the college process. The rules of the game have changed since parents and grandparents attended college - and so has the price tag and complexity of getting into the most competitive colleges and programs. So today, more than ever before, it is important to have an expert guide you through this maze. By following my proprietary 4-Step Process - stress can be reduced, and success can be achieved! My specialties include: - Helping families run their Expected Family Contribution, - Guiding students on where to search and apply for private college scholarships, - Helping students identify their future college major and career path,- Searching for the right colleges for students and parents to visit and ultimately apply to,- Reviewing every college, honors, and scholarship application,- Providing brainstorming help on college essays and reviewing them for content, accuracy, and impact,- Reviewing all Financial Aid forms: the FAFSA and CSS Profile,- Coaching families on how to appeal a college's Financial Aid Award,- Guiding families through the college loan process, - Helping to motivate students who are stuck in the college process, Financial Planners love working with me because I am knowledgeable about the various college funding tools, BUT I do not sell any insurance or investment products. Instead, I stay in my lane and provide their clients with exceptional value-added college services that allow advisors to do what they do best, manage their client's assets. By working together, we can help each client's child reach their college dreams. My mission is simple: help my students attend the right college at the right price, pursue the right major or career path, and graduate right on time!
