About

With years of personal and professional experience as a placement counselor at Convent and Stuart Hall in San Francisco, I can offer guidance at all stages of the process to give your student confidence and your family peace of mind.

As a mother of three children who have successfully navigated both the private high school and college process, I can help devise effective strategies to make the most of your visits and reduce the stress that often happens between students and parents. 

I have a BA in International Relations from Stanford University and spent many years selling institutional mortgage-backed securities for various Wall Street firms. For the last 20 years, I have been intricately involved in local schools, serving as President of the Parents Association for both the Reed School system and for Marin Academy High School, where I also served on the Board of Trustees. Additionally, I worked for Bridge the Gap College Prep, an organization founded to tutor and guide underprivileged youth towards a college path. 

Combining my professional admissions work, my many positions in local schools, and my role as a parent, I understand the admissions landscape from every perspective. I would be happy to meet with your family and cultivate the best strategy for your success. I look forward to working with you.
