A trusted partner in the college search

Nancy enjoys helping people make big decisions and has been doing so since 1995 – first as a career counselor and then as an independent college counselor (since 2006). Nancy was an alumni interviewer for her alma mater, Brown University, for 20 years. She holds a master’s degree in College Student Development and Counseling from Northeastern University.

In addition to working with hundreds of students over the years, Nancy has extensive knowledge of the ins and outs of education from her experience as a three-term elected member of her regional school board of which she served as chair for five years. Nancy also can relate to the college search journey from the parent perspective as a parent of three who have already been through it.

Nancy is an active Professional Member of the Independent Educational Consultants Association (IECA) where she is held to ethical standards that are truly important. She has held various leadership roles at IECA. Nancy is committed to professional development and regularly attends conferences and professional retreats. She continues to visit (and re-visit) colleges throughout the country on a regular basis to stay on top of what is new on a variety of college campuses. She has personally visited nearly 400 colleges.

Susan gives her students the tools, and instills in them the confidence, to become strong writers. She has worked as an A.P. English teacher at Guilford High School in Guilford, CT since 1996, as a private tutor for over a decade, and currently as an essay expert at College Consulting Services.

Susan knows the college application and essay writing process well. As both a teacher of writing and as a mother of three, she has supported not only her many students but also her own children as they navigate the daunting college application process.

Susan was certified to teach English through Yale’s teacher preparation program and holds a Masters of Liberal Studies degree with a concentration in writing from Wesleyan University.
