Everyone Else Seems to Have a Plan
You Can Too.
When you’re choosing a college, figuring out your career, or making a professional change, you may feel overwhelmed—unsure where to begin or how to move forward.
You aren’t alone. Two weeks before high school graduation, a student told me: “It seems like everyone else has a plan... except me.”
That’s where I come in. My goal is to untangle your uncertainty and get you unstuck—making way for possibilities instead confusion.
With 25 years in higher education as a communication professor and advisor, I bring strategic questioning and deep listening to our conversations to learn about you. I craft a personalized approach for your individual needs. I don’t just offer suggestions and send you on your way—I take on the heavy lifting, researching every aspect of your potential options.
My approach is efficient, collaborative, and outcome-focused. You’ll receive concrete, actionable pathways, timelines, and checklists—so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
I’ve guided hundreds of students and professionals through academic and career transitions. You don’t have to feel like everyone else has it figured out. The right support can help you build a plan too—whether you’re just starting out or starting over.
My Background
I am 25-year tenured professor who also has a caseload of academic and career advisees at Highline College. For four years prior, I had the same role at Darton College, part of the University of Georgia system. In this role, I earned an Advisor of the Year award.
