What Christie Has to Say

“What I have enjoyed most in my 25 years in higher ed and admissions has been working with students – watching them grow, develop, and succeed in their careers. You might think that after all these years, the job would be routine, but no. Each candidate is an individual, and each one needs different guidance and advice. I tend to develop very close relationships with my clients, and I am as excited as they are when they call to say they’ve been admitted to the school of their dreams.

No matter how many applications I’ve read or how many interviews I’ve conducted, I still find coaching exciting and fulfilling. I’d love to work with you to highlight your unique qualities and help you find the right school and the right career path that will make you happy and successful.”
