Testimonials

  • "Daniel began working with my son in 9th grade, who is now a college freshman at MIT. During his time working with my son, Daniel was attentive, thoughtful, and served as a mentor and role model, especially in helping my son explore his passions in the biomedical sciences through summer programs, research opportunities, and more. Daniel provided guidance and plenty of advice during his counseling sessions and my son still keeps in touch with him regularly. I am certain that their relationship will continue in the years to come and am thankful for the valuable insight Daniel provided to us." - Jen

  • "I really enjoyed the personal aspect to Daniel's counseling - he took the time to get to know my daughter's interests and strengths, and helped shine a light on them to the admissions committee. I am proud to say that my daughter is attending Williams College!" - Steve
