Leslie Young – College Advisor

Leslie Young

About

Hello! My name is Leslie Young and I am very excited to meet you! I am a graduate of the University of Florida…go gators! I earned my Masters in Education for school counseling from the University of North Carolina…go heels! I spent several years working in a high school and then took a break to raise my three kids. I have a college student and two high school students, so college planning is discussed quite often at home! I enjoy advising students and treat them as if I were advising my own kids. In my free time I love watching football, taking walks on the beach, listening to podcasts, and spending time with my family and our cat, Chloe. I would love to help you reach your higher ed goals!
