Born and raised in New York City, I've met people from all walks of life. My work as a freelance journalist, writer/editor, and educator has served as ways to learn from others as well as connect them. My services as a college admissions strategist and writing coach turn a daunting process into a prepared one. I work with legacy families as well as first-generation students to help them find their right fit. I obtained a bachelor's degree from The New School; and master's degrees from Fairleigh Dickinson University and Columbia University.
