Welcome to Academic Futures College and Career Counseling Services.

As a lifelong proponent of learning and finding one’s own journey, I have worked with teens and young adults for over 14 years. My process involves an individualized approach, as I believe every student is unique in his or her interests, strengths, passions and vision for the future.

My college and career process is based on you – your input, assessments, goals and needs. I provide a methodical, individualized approach to the admissions process, along with a timeline and updated action plan at each session, so you are in control and well-prepared along each step of the process. This allows for the process to be a learning experience rather than a race to the finish line. You will have time to evaluate and prepare each piece of the application in an organized manner so you can present your strongest profile.

I have found over the years that even my most accomplished students often do not have or take the time to assess their strengths, who they want to become or to make a plan to get there. This is the most exciting part of my job, to help students take the time to do this.

I work with one student at a time, focusing on them holistically as I prepare a college list and numerous action plans. My process allows students to cast a vision for their future, and provides positive encouragement while breaking down the process into small steps so each piece can be done well. My process encourages students to develop a resume that reflects who they are, versus trying to add exhausting activities to keep up with what are perceived requirements for acceptance.

Please read my testimonials to learn more about how my process has benefited students and parents. I offer 30-minute free consults for you to get your questions answered. Please call our front office to schedule at 678-893-5300. I would welcome the opportunity to assist you in planning your academic future.
