College Counseling

Hannah is a dedicated educator and counselor who has spent the past decade guiding students at both the high school and collegiate levels. With experience on both sides of the admission process, from reviewing thousands of freshman applications in selective college admissions offices to serving as Director of College Counseling at an independent high school, Hannah brings a well rounded and deeply empathetic approach to helping students navigate the path after high school.

Coming from a family of educators, Hannah developed an early appreciation for the power of education to transform lives. Her passion lies in working closely with high school students as they uncover their unique stories, values, and aspirations. She believes that the college application process is more than a checklist—it’s an opportunity for self discovery and personal growth. Whether she’s helping a student shape their personal statement or guiding them through school selection, Hannah strives to ensure that each student feels seen, supported, and empowered to pursue a life that is both fulfilling and aligned with who they are.

Originally from Upstate New York (Go Bills!), Hannah grew up exploring the outdoors—skiing, swimming, and playing soccer in every season. After moving to San Diego for graduate school, she fell in love with the West Coast and continues to enjoy its year round sunshine and natural beauty. When she’s not working with students or enjoying time outside, you can find her reading, watching soccer, or searching for the best coffee shops around town.
