Your fresh perspective and insight have truly provided me with a greater awareness of what it takes to succeed. Creating a personal portfolio was an instant hit in terms of helping me stand out above the other applicants and get the job. Your creativity, patient approach, positive attitude, and unwillingness to just “settle” have brought me value and helped me get the extra edge during my career search.

I’m so excited about going to Brandeis University! I was really nervous at the beginning of the whole college process. You really made it easy. I felt comfortable and learned how to look at things from different angles.

When I was laid off from my job during the recession I was concerned that future employers would think it was because of my performance and not the economy. You had a great suggestion about getting a letter from my previous employer confirming the economic reasons for the layoff. They were happy to comply and wrote the letter in a timely fashion. This letter not only helped me get through the transition, it helped me land my next job! Thank you again.

Thank you so much for helping my son and me navigate the college admissions and financial aid maze. We couldn’t have done it without you! You zeroed in on his interests and talents and were able to help him grasp not just the value of such skills, but how they translate into future professional pursuits. He is looking forward to his freshman year at California College of the Arts.
