Experience That Makes a Difference

For more than 30 years, I've dedicated my professional life to helping young people recognize their strengths, explore opportunities, and build a path toward their future.

As a school counselor and basketball coach, I've worked closely with students and families through some of their most important decisions. I've seen firsthand how overwhelming the college process can become—and how much difference thoughtful, personalized guidance can make.

I founded Prep48 College Consulting because I believe families deserve access to meaningful college planning without the expense of traditional, high-priced consulting packages.

My approach goes beyond simply suggesting colleges. I look at each student's academic record, interests, goals, and financial considerations to identify realistic opportunities they may not have considered. The objective is to help families make informed decisions with greater confidence.

Whether a student is exploring career interests, building a college list, pursuing athletic opportunities, or searching for affordable options, my goal is the same: provide honest guidance, individualized research, and a practical plan for moving forward.

Every student has a story. My job is to help them find the opportunities that fit it.
