I Don't Just Help Students Apply.
I Help Them Figure Out Who They Are.

Most college consultants coach students to fill out forms. I coach students to find their story — and then write it in a way that admissions offices actually remember.

After decades as an academic coach, ADHD specialist, and published author, I've built a practice around one core belief: every student has something genuinely compelling to offer. The job is to find it, shape it, and present it with confidence.

My approach is hands-on and direct. I don't hand students a worksheet and wish them luck. I sit with them, challenge them, and help them discover the motivation they didn't know they had.

  • Academic coach with 20+ years working with grades 6–12
  • Specialist in ADHD, executive function, and neurodiverse learners
  • Author of six books on learning, resilience, and student success
  • Proven track record with selective and highly selective universities
  • Real, personal access to your student — not a junior associate

Results reflect students Kevin has personally coached through the application process.

This Isn't a Service. It's a Partnership.

College consulting should do more than submit applications. It should change how a student sees themselves.

🎯

Hands-On, Not Hands-Off

Kevin works directly with your student — not a staff member. Every session is personal, direct, and built around your child's actual situation.

💡

Motivation First

Many students struggle not from lack of ability, but from lack of direction. Kevin specializes in unlocking the drive students didn't know they had.

📖

Story-Driven Applications

Six published books mean Kevin knows what makes a narrative compelling. Your student's application will tell a story admissions officers remember.

🧠

Neurodiversity-Aware

Decades of ADHD coaching means Kevin understands how neurodiverse students think, communicate, and perform — and how to present their strengths honestly.

“My son was resistant to the whole process — the essays sat untouched for weeks and I was at my wit’s end. Kevin didn’t push or pressure him. He sat down with him, built a real relationship, and somehow turned everything around. Within a month they had completed every application. My son was accepted to every single school he applied to. Kevin accomplished what might have taken us months and many headaches in a short time allowing us to support our son. He’s the best!”
— Kari S.
“When I started the college application process, I felt completely overwhelmed. Kevin helped me think strategically about my extracurriculars, worked with me on my essays until they truly sounded like me, and was available nights, weekends — whenever I needed him. He never gave up, and neither did I. I’m headed to the Wharton School of Business at UPenn, and I genuinely don’t think I would have gotten there without his guidance.”
— Joia H.
“Kevin has been working with all four of my children for the last three years. He has not only been a mentor, teacher, and friend to my children but he has taught them how to be independent, resourceful, organized, and most importantly advocates for their personal success. Two of my children were deferred from their top-choice schools, and I honestly thought that was the end of the road. Kevin stepped in and wrote letters of continued interest on their behalf that were thoughtful, compelling, and perfectly positioned. Both were ultimately accepted. I credit those letters — and Kevin’s persistence — for making that happen.”
— Danielle K.

"I worked with another college consultant and it just didn't click. She gave me checklists and assignments but never really got to know me. I stopped responding to her calls. When deadlines were a few weeks away and I had barely started, my mom called Kevin in a panic. He already knew me from coaching. He knew how I think, what motivates me, and how to get me moving. In four sessions over two weeks, we knocked out every single application. I got into both of my top-choice schools. I honestly don't know what would have happened without him."

— Connor M.

Answers Before You Ask

Is Kevin working directly with my student, or does he hand us off?
Kevin works directly with every student personally. There are no junior associates, no hand-offs. When you work with Kevin, you get Kevin.
What if my student is a strong student but struggles with motivation or direction?
That's actually where Kevin does some of his best work. Many of his students are academically capable but haven't found their "why" yet. Unlocking that drive is a core part of the coaching process — not an afterthought.
Does Kevin work with students who have ADHD or learning differences?
Absolutely. Kevin has spent his career working with neurodiverse students and their families. He understands how these students think and communicate — and how to present their strengths authentically in an application.
When should we start?
It's never too early to have a conversation. The Full Journey package begins in sophomore year for maximum impact. For seniors, the sooner the better — especially if Early Decision or Early Action deadlines are on the horizon.
What is your payment policy?
A 50% deposit is required to reserve your package and lock in your sessions. The remaining balance is due before your first working session. Packages are non-refundable after the first session begins.
Can we start with the free intro call before committing?
Always. Every engagement begins with a complimentary 30-minute call. No pressure, no obligation — just a real conversation to see if it's the right fit.
