Why do I coach?

I coach because I like to help people achieve their dreams. I have served as a mentor, law school admissions coach and career coach to hundreds of students and applicants, many of whom I have stayed in touch with for many years. I love to make the process as stress-free as possible, and break it down into simple steps and achievable goals. In my thirty years advising applicants, students, and professionals I have helped people achieve their ultimate goal--whether it was to be admitted to Harvard, Yale, Columbia or another top law school, to find scholarships, or to figure out their ultimate career goals. Helping people find the best fit for themselves, and see them succeed has been very meaningful to me. It has been a gratifying career which I enjoy very much!
