Customer Testimonials
Listen to Simon’s Dad:
From a Mom:
” Brenda helped us tremendously with navigating the college application process for my daughter Katie. She was a wealth of knowledge. She scheduled regular meetings with us to check-in and kept Katie on track with deadlines. Brenda was very responsive with any questions that came up. The college application process is extremely stressful, and Brenda was always there to help support and talk things through. She gave Katie great advice. It was very apparent Brenda truly cared about my daughter. “
