About
As an independent educational consultant and psychological counselor, I aim to empower students to set university goals and create actionable plans to get there, as well as support them and their families through the last years of school. I have worked in IB schools in Europe, Asia and the Middle East, in both teaching and counseling roles and have been part of the IB Psychology examination team since 2008. I hold a College Counseling Diploma from UCLA, as well as a postgraduate degree in Counseling and Professional Coaching, allowing me to merge tailored university guidance with psychological support. As a former University, Careers and Guidance counselor at one of Dubai's premiere international schools, I have successfully supported hundreds of students in their post- secondary journey to universities in the UK and Europe, Canada, US, Singapore and Australia.
