Your Senior Summer Blueprint: What Top College Admits Do Differently

Are you ready to make the most of your senior summer and set yourself apart in the college admissions process? Join me for a practical session on crafting your Senior Summer Blueprint. As someone who has guided students to some of the most prestigious institutions in the country, including all eight Ivy League schools and Stanford, I know what it takes to stand out. And I know that the summer months before senior year can make all the difference. In this session, I'll share my recommendations for how to structure your summer—what to do and when—so you can head into fall feeling organized, confident, and ahead of the curve. In other words: less overwhelm, stronger applications.

Core Values: Your College Essay Superpower [6/19/2026] (Recording)

What makes a college essay truly unforgettable? More often than not, it comes down to one thing: a clear sense of the applicant's core values. As someone who has coached 150+ college applicants—with clients admitted to all 8 Ivy League schools, Stanford, UChicago, and more—I know that students who understand their core values write stronger essays, build more cohesive applications, and approach the process with greater confidence. In this webinar, I'll show you what core values actually are (and what they're not). We'll explore why they matter across your entire application (not just your personal statement), and how to identify and use yours to write college essays that only you could have written. Whether you're working on your personal statement, UC PIQs, or supplemental essays, this webinar will give you the tools to make every essay feel unmistakably yours.
