Why do I coach?
I strongly believe in the power of mentorship and getting help to reach your goals. In people's stories, it often appears as if the "hero" gets to their destination all on their own, when that is absolutely not the case. I coach to help you, the hero, chase your dreams and achieve your goals. I am where I am because of those who have come before me and those who have helped me along the way. I am excited to help people tactically with actionable advice on their college applications, but also more abstractly, by showing others all that they are capable of. You don't know what you can do until you try, or until you're surrounded by people who believe in you.
