Mentorship

In addition to years working as a teacher, I’ve taught and mentored students through test prep, college admissions, subject area tutoring, research, writing and performance for more than 15 years. I am now also interim Executive Director of Y-Apply, a nonprofit devoted to college access for public school students of color, for which I’ve delivered college workshops across the country.

​

I take an exacting approach to mentorship, coupled with empathy and humor. I don’t whittle students down to better fit the norm, and I help students “find their forte” by playing to their strengths. I’m proud to see students succeed in academic and professional pursuits, so please be in touch to inquire about coaching and college admissions workshop presentations.
