I appreciated how Afton was incredibly dedicated to my stories/essays. Her feedback always got my brain working, but also made me feel good about myself.

I don’t think we could’ve gotten this far without you. She is so smart but a master procrastinator. Thanks for all your help.

We appreciate all the help you gave our daughter during the process and the bonus of it all was that it definitely kept the peace at home more since I didn’t have to be the one keeping her on track.

THANK YOU very much for all the help you offered my daughter! She knows her essays turned out so much better and stronger than they otherwise would have been.

During a pivotal transition in my college journey, Randy was instrumental in helping me craft strong admissions essays that secured my acceptance into my desired school. A year later, I returned to him for guidance while applying to a competitive business program with a 39% acceptance rate, and once again, his support—especially with the essay portion—was invaluable. Randy has a gift for writing in a way that captures attention, and through his coaching, I’ve learned to critically analyze, refine, and clearly communicate my ideas. He knows exactly which parts of a narrative to highlight and develop, making each story more compelling and impactful. Working with him was truly a life-changing experience!

I would highly recommend Randy as a mentor! When I filled out my application for BYU, I was unsure of where I should even begin. Randy helped me articulate my thoughts in a clear and concise manner and was very personable. Every session, he was all in and brought out the best in me. With his encouragement, I felt confident in myself and in my writing. I am happy to say that I now attend BYU, and I know that he helped me get there. His skill set is unmatched:)
