Rising Seniors
Allison helped my son with his personal statement for this college application. She completed this Herculean feat without any parental intrusion- just between her and my son. She is incredibly adept with teenagers and has a way of communicating with them which is truly impressive- she is the ultimate “teenage whisperer.” I highly recommend her services. --Michelle Sanchez

My Style
My goal is to reduce anxiety, make the process less daunting, and be your child's support person.
I like to get to know the student, really discover what makes him/her unique and write together from there. I prefer 2-3 hour sessions where the student has time to craft an essay, work on edits, and finish a draft in the same session.
Most people are able to complete the common app in just a few sessions.
*College admissions package is for those students who want to provide a comprehensive picture of themselves for admissions. Package includes common app essay, additional long essay, if needed, and all the supplementals required for up to 9 colleges. Approximate time is 40 hours.
I will also provide students with a list of college requirements and admission due dates, organize supplements by schools, and work with students until every application is submitted. Should student be waitlisted, we will work on Letter of Continued Interest.
