My Background

My interest in financial aid started with temp work in the student accounts office at Anna Maria College, where I earned both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees. That led me into the financial aid office as a counselor, where I worked the front lines, meeting with students and parents every day, reviewing loan counseling, promissory notes, and verification. Alongside the college's former director, I helped launch Anna Maria's financial literacy program before moving on to Worcester Polytechnic Institute (WPI) as Assistant Director of Financial Aid. At WPI, I managed awarding and packaging for first-year and returning students, oversaw MA state grant awarding and reconciliation, handled graduate student awarding, and assisted with the university's financial literacy program. I joined College Coach in 2023 and have now spent more than five years working in financial aid.

Why I Joined College Coach

Working at Anna Maria and WPI showed me the same thing from two different sides of the desk: every school follows its own rules for awarding and distributing aid, and a family working with just one office only ever sees that one version of the process. As a College Coach Counselor, I can advise families across those different policies, helping them understand how each school awards aid so they can make informed decisions well before their student applies for admission.
