Mariana’s College Qualifications

Mariana has helped clients get into these schools:

Welcome to my profile! With a Doctorate in Higher Education Leadership and Administration from the University of Southern Mississippi and extensive experience in academic operations and admissions, I am well-equipped to guide you through the college application process. As an Admissions Processor at North Carolina State University and a former Application Reader at the University of Virginia, I have a keen understanding of what top universities are looking for in applicants. I have successfully coached students, helping them craft compelling applications that stand out. I’m the college coach who brings strategy, clarity, and heart to every student I work with. With years of experience navigating higher education from multiple angles including leadership, student success, and real-world problem solving, I know how to translate big goals into clear, achievable steps. I’m a natural advocate and a bridge builder, able to connect with all kinds of students and help them find confidence in their voice, their path, and their future. Whether you need guidance on applications, transitions, academic planning, or simply someone who gets it, I bring patience, expertise, and a solutions-oriented approach that puts you at the center. My students don’t just get into college, they thrive once they get there. Let's work together to make you shine!
