Expertise

I can answer general questions about college life as an adult student as well as traditional age. I can help you with how to make the right choice of school, being away from home for the first time, adjusting to being a big fish in a small pond, Do's and Don'ts and almost anything that is on your mind. If I do not initially have the answer I will help you figure it out.

Experience

I am a college graduate with multiple undergraduate degrees currently pursuing a Master's degree. I have graduated from college as a traditional student and have also graduate from college as a non traditional student.
