Frequently Asked Questions

First, I would encourage you to think about: 

• your specific goals for our time together,
• what kind of consulting assistance or style might be needed (e.g. do you prefer ongoing hands-on guidance versus a one-time specific project or time-sensitive request?),
• what type of budget is available for consulting services,
• how much time you can devote to working together, including how often you would like to meet

Then, schedule your free 20-minute consultation to get to know each other, ask questions, and discuss the details of your request. 

If it's a good fit, then you will let me know you're in! I'll send you a services agreement form to sign and return to me within 3 business days and a link to set up your next appointment.

Yes! Payment plans are offered for all package options (including monthly, semester, and year-long services) offered on the pricing menu. 

For one-time or flat-rate services, payment is due before or at the time of your scheduled meeting  or project (an invoice will be sent with a link to remit payment virtually).

Great question!

I take a holistic, strengths-based, and individualized problem-solving approach to my consulting services. As a result, you will never see me apply a "one-size-fits-all" strategy to your specific needs. This is reflected in my educational training as someone who values understanding how systems, policies, and cultural phenomena shape individual people and their interactions with the world around them. 

Additionally, my diverse professional experiences as a woman of color leader in the education space are par to none having supported students and their advocates at various levels of the college pipeline. I know what it takes for highly talented students from a variety of educational settings and communities to get into college, thrive while they are there, and graduate to go on and lead successful lives as the next generation of promising leaders. More importantly, I understand the institutional barriers that often get in the way of a student's success during this process, and have fought tirelessly to break down those barriers with every step of my career.

My mission now is to share that special knowledge with you by working together to change the American higher education system and students' lives for the better. 

As a lifelong equity advocate and queer woman of color, it is important to me to keep my college consulting services accessible to those who need my services most! 

Make sure to ask me about my sliding scale pricing menu for college consulting services If you identify as at least one or more of the following:

• Historically underrepresented ethnic or racial groups (e.g. Latine/x, Black, Native American, Hawaiian or Alaskan Natives),
• First generation American,
• First in your family to attend college,
• LGBTQ+,
• Someone with high financial need (i.e. lower-to-middle socioeconomic income),
• Currently enrolled as a full-time student and part-time employee (i.e. you work at least 20 hours a week on top of your school responsibilities),
• A person with a disability

Even if you're unsure if you fit any one of these categories, please don't hesitate to reach out. I'm very excited to work with you soon!
