Meet Kristin!

Kristin was extremely encouraging and supportive of me and kept me going and working hard during one of the toughest and mostimportant phases of my life. I really enjoyed working with her and would definitely say that she played an important part in getting me to where I am today. I’d really recommend Kristin to everyone who wants to achieve their dream school target!

The University selection, preparation and application process is a long, complicated and often daunting one. We were fortunate to have Kristin along with us! She has a wealth of knowledge, is always reachable (despite time zone differences) and unfailingly patient. She quickly established an excellent equation, trust and warm working relationship with our child and helped the entire family navigate these choppy waters with ease. We could not have asked for a better partner during our journey! We are very grateful and thankful to Kristen and the extended Collegewise team working behind the scene.

We absolutely loved working with Kristin. She brings a pragmatic, well-informed view of the college admissions process. She doesn't get caught up in the hype, and she was a true consultant, not only to our daughter, but also to her parents. Kristin was able to balance the desires of all members of the family so that we all felt part of the process. Additionally, she was a true advocate for our daughter's success, leveraging the global resources of Collegewise as she critiqued our daughter's essays, which brought a more balanced view of our daughter's chances of getting into various universities. Finally, because our daughter has lived in Singapore since elementary school, Kristin was able to provide an American perspective to our international school perspective. Thank you Kristin for a wonderful experience!

With both our daughters, Kristin facilitated our family discussions with gentle guidance as our daughters explored their best fit universities. She supported them with their own process of self discovery while also providing advice on college essays, activities and other details associated with college admissions. She truly understands that US university admissions is a process that the entire family should be involved in, and she does a great job balancing the needs of the student and parents alike. Kristin has become part of our family over the past several years, and we are grateful for the help she provided our family during these critical years. We are pleased with the college admissions that both our daughters have secured and Kristin has been a key coach and guide in the process.  

Thank you Kristin and Collegewise!

I was very anxious when I began applying for college, but Kristin's support made the journey so much easier. Not only did Kristin give enlightening advice and ideas on my college process, but she also took care in getting to know me and always being there for me. Kristin is kind, patient, trustworthy, and very experienced. She helped me perfect my applications and I can't thank her enough for her help. I am very happy with my results and highly recommend working with Kristin.

Kristin listened to Soraya’s thoughts, needs, wants and concerns and helped her navigate through her thought processes. She helped Soraya get through a normally stressful process without a lot less stress. 

When I first started looking at colleges I was completely overwhelmed by the whole process and was afraid I'd be missing deadlines or not be able to keep up with the college load on top of high school, but Kristin helped make it VERY simple for me to get through the application process. The editing team is also amazing and I don't think anyone could have done a better job on my essays. I ended up submitting all my applications early and got into my top choices with their help which made the rest of my senor year so stress free. I was so lucky to get such an involved and enthusiastic college counselor and I'm very happy with how things turned out after signing up with Collegewise!

Kristin was excellent, and she engaged with our son to understand his strengths. She was also very patient and kept on encouraging him and leading him in the right direction. She also gave him a detailed perspective on colleges and helped him narrow down his choices of colleges. I am sure anyone working with her would immensely benefit from her deep understanding of the college admission process and, more importantly, her ability to understand her students.

Kristin was a pleasure to work with. She guided us very knowledgeably throughout the whole admissions process. She kept our expectations realistic and allowed us, the parents to be involved as much as we preferred. Also the essay editing team was phenomenal. We would recommend Kristin and the Collegewise team wholeheartedly for college bound students and their families!
