Gene D
San Jose, CA

SJSU Business Management Graduate

Entering College/University can be a very daunting yet intimidating process. There are times typical new college students may find themselves overwhelmed and confused on how to go about it. That being said, a little guidance can go a way long way. This is where I come in, I am eager to provide counseling/guidance/expertise for new/upcoming higher education students. Even if you are not a new college student, I encourage you to consider me as we can brainstorm as fellow students of the college lifestyle. In reality, there is nothing wrong with asking for help on how to pursue the educational journey. Because at the end of the day, we are all trying to find ourselves in this wide world. As a San Jose State Alumni carrying a B.A in Businesss Mgmt and 3 Associate Degrees, I am eager to provide my experiences to help develop your path.

Nathan Burns
San Francisco, CA

Sociology Graduate and MA Student

Hi! I'm Nathan (they/he). I'm a recent graduate from San Francisco State University where I got my degree in Sociology and minor in LGBTQ Studies. In college I fell in love with academia and with teaching. I previously served as a TA for a writing-intensive upper-division sociology course, and because I loved it so much, I created and taught my own course on queer cultural production through SFSU's Experimental College. I love being in the classroom and sharing knowledge with all sorts of people. I love learning just as much from my students that they learn from me. In college I also co-founded a disabled student group by and for disabled students. I am disabled and neurodiverse, and I know how much an accessible classroom environment can make or break the learning experience. I am committed to making my tutoring and instruction accessible, whatever that ends up looking like. Let's work together to make that happen!

Maya Richard-Craven
Los Angeles, CA

Essay Writing Coach

For the past few years, I have worked as an independent college counselor. My students have attended schools like Tufts, NYU, UC Santa Cruz, and more. I enjoy college counseling more than any other subject because I like watching students' confidence building as their writing improves. I attended a top 20 ranked private school in the nation from pre-k to 8th grade (Polytechnic School in Pasadena, CA). I transferred to an all-girls catholic high school known for its English department. I excelled in all of my English courses and knew at a young age that I wanted to teach writing.

Quynh Pham
Dallas, TX

University Student - Mentor

As a college student myself, I have significantly struggled during my time in college. I followed the belief that if I did everything by myself, I would triumph over my hardships. Well, it is safe to say that I was dead wrong! Asking for help in college is the greatest experience for me. It is the sole reason why I am succeeding in my classes, receiving grades nothing below Bs, and As, and overall, accomplishing things during my time in college. I currently serve as a Freshman Mentor, a program my university offers where upperclassmen will teach 1-2 freshmen per academic semester. I dedicate portions of time to check-in and guide my freshmen to ensure that they succeed as well. I want them to know that they are supported and encouraged throughout their college experience. I greatly encourage them to pursue their careers and offered many resources and personal stories to help guide them. My main goal is to remind them that asking for help will not hurt. Yes, it may seem scary or even intimidating, but it is essential to receive proper guidance.

Anna Willow
Columbus, OH

College Application and Essay Consultant

As a college professor, I have inside knowledge of how universities work, what competitive universities look for in the students they admit, and how to boost holistic student success. I became interested in college admissions when my son was a senior in high school. As I helped him research his options and increase his chances of admission into highly selective universities, I realized that there is a daunting amount of information that most students and parents don’t have. I took it upon myself to become an expert in multiple aspects of the college admissions process, including: • Building a holistic extracurricular profile • Navigating AP and dual-enrollment credit • Selecting appropriate reach, target, and safety schools • Developing a compelling Common App essay • Writing and organizing strong supplemental essays • Navigating early decision, early action, and regular decision deadlines • SAT and ACT testing, including when to apply test-optional • Differences between the Common App, Coalition App, and University of California App • Financial Aid (FAFSA) and the CSS (College Board) Profile I am enthusiastic about passing along the knowledge and experience I have gained to other students and their families! I can offer comprehensive college admissions consulting or provide targeted assistance in any of these areas. As the author of six published books and dozens of published essays, I can also offer expert writing advice to help students create college essays that get them noticed.
