Career and College Planning

Hiring Julie was the best thing we did for our daughter Michelle. Julie guided her in choosing the perfect college and major,  advertising at Temple University.  Despite the pandemic in 2020, Michelle graduated in four years and had a job secured with Target Corporation in Minneapolis. The investment we made in our daughter saved us money in that she did not need to change majors or universities and she chose the right fit from the start. Most importantly, Michelle is happy as at Target as a Creative Art Director!

Essay Development & College Advising

We sought out Julie’s expertise with essay development, editing and college advising for our son. We arrived at Julie's office with what we thought was an excellent essay draft. After my son’s first session, she extracted many ideas, values, and personal aspirations from my son. That first essay was scrapped in lieu of a more fully developed, personally reflective statement embodying my son’s true values, strengths, and goals. The final product was interesting, personal, and definitely conversation-provoking.

One of my son’s colleges required an interview - the interviewer immediately dove into questions about my son’s personal statement. He told my son how much he enjoyed reading it and how it really made him think. We were not surprised when he was accepted early to that college (and many others!

 

Julie’s essay development process was invaluable to us. Her college advising proved thorough and insightful throughout the entire application cycle. We whole-heartedly recommend Julie - we will be back next year with son #2!

Essay Writing

My husband and I were so grateful we had Julie work with son on his college essays.  He had hit a roadblock, and we could no longer help him. It was clear after the first meeting that our son was relieved to be working with her.  The exercises she did with him and the comments that she made opened him up and allowed him to see what he was truly capable of. The process of writing these college essays for many students (even the brightest) is so taxing and does not come naturally.  Julie was successful in getting him to write more personally. Her patience and support were invaluable while she held him accountable. This gave him the courage to really let the essays show who he is as a young man.  In just a few short weeks, we saw his confidence in his essays grow - they became passages that he wanted people to read, not just ones he knew they had to.
