Student Advocacy Help with School Search, Applications, Admissions, & General Academic Planning
With over 15 years of experience in education, including serving as a member of the Fairfax County School Board, I provide an insider's perspective of the educational process. I can assist you with navigating through issues that may arise during your student’s academic career.

Assistance with school based concerns, academic options, course selections, and disciplinary issues.

As an objective and independent student advocate, I can work with your child’s school to create an academic plan targeted to meet their particular needs. I can facilitate discussion to bring understanding and resolution to academic and/or social concerns. I willl always consider your child’s academic, developmental, and social needs when suggesting specific courses and academic programs.
