Work with me

Four stops. One line. Your kid’s next school.

Every tier is delivered over Zoom, evenings and weekends, with full pricing right here on the page. Most families hop on in 7th or 8th grade, and the door is open earlier and later too: 5th and 6th grade head starts, families new to NYC or coming from non-public schools, and 10th and 11th grade transfers. Start with the smallest thing that helps. The tiers are built so you can hop on wherever you are in the process.

Platform Talk

$35 per family · group Zoom session

Right for you if: you’re just starting to explore and want the lay of the land before investing in 1:1 time.

A group session in a community Q&A format. The friendly, low-commitment way to get oriented. Each Platform Talk covers a season-appropriate topic (what’s coming in 8th grade, navigating the application, getting a 7th grader ready) and always ends with open questions.

  • Live group session over Zoom, roughly an hour
  • Submit questions in advance so yours gets covered
  • Held monthly September–November, quarterly the rest of the year
  • The single cheapest way to hear how I think about this process

Single Ride

$225 · one 60-minute 1:1 session

Right for you if: you have specific questions and want focused answers, fast.

One hour, just your family. Most Single Rides are school-list feedback, SHSAT strategy, program-fit questions, or deadline triage, but the hour is yours, and it’s shaped by your intake form before we ever meet.

  • 60 minutes, 1:1 over Zoom, evenings or weekends
  • Personalized from your intake form, with no time wasted on basics you already know
  • Recap email with your next steps and key dates
  • Most popular September through November

Ride the Line

$599 · three 1:1 sessions across the season

Right for you if: you want a plan and a guide, not just answers to this week’s questions.

Three sessions, spaced across the season to match how the process actually unfolds. A typical arc: build the school list, set the application strategy, and a check-in before deadlines to make sure nothing slips.

  • Three 60-minute 1:1 sessions, scheduled around your season
  • A running plan that carries from session to session
  • Recap and next steps after each meeting
  • Better value than three Single Rides, because commitment should count for something

All Stops

$1,200+ · full-season support

Right for you if: you want someone beside your family from first research to final decision.

The whole journey, together: researching schools, building and ranking the list, application strategy, deadline management, and talking through offers when decisions land. You bring the kid; I bring everything I know.

  • Full-season engagement, research through final decisions
  • Sessions plus between-session support as the process moves
  • School list built on what schools are actually like: current demand, seats, and program quality
  • Deliberately limited each season so every family gets real attention
