Giving students an edge in education.

**NOW ACCEPTING CLASS OF  2027 & 2028  STUDENTS**

If you are reading this, you are most likely a student or have a student who will be attending college in the near future. Congratulations! This is an exciting time of life, and you have been working hard to get to this point! But, the real celebration comes when that acceptance to the perfect match college is received and the first big step towards life-long independence is taken.    

I am Cassie, a college admissions consultant with a background in education and advertising. Not only do I assist families in navigating the often overwhelming process of college applications, I put my marketing background to work so that my clients stand out and get in. I have years of experience within the public school system but have also worked within the business community spearheading marketing campaigns and writing effective promotional copy for successful corporations. This unique combination of experiences (along with the fact that I too am a parent who has been through the application process three times), is what makes my approach to helping my clients with their applications effective and empowering. 

The decision to attend college is one of life’s greatest investments. Why not do all that you can to enhance your college application experience and increase your opportunities? There is a perfect path and plan for each student, and I welcome the opportunity to become a part of your family’s journey.
