Meet Our Founder

Teri Thompson has assisted families with the college application process since 2008. From the beginning, her focus has been helping families identify appropriate schools for a successful college experience.

Her college counseling journey began with her own college-bound daughter. Realizing how immensely stressful the college application process is, Teri was inspired to help other families. Having graduated from UCLA’s College Counseling program, she has become a leading college consultant with a passion for helping families find the right school, both domestically and internationally.

Teri brings her expertise as a former recruiter for a high-tech company- focusing on creating an organized, streamlined process for college applications and providing advice through a career-forward lens.

Meet Our International Admissions Consultant

Liz Suh is a passionate college consultant with a Master’s in Education from the Universidad de Alcala in Madrid, Spain. She began her college counseling journey as an assistant director at a non-profit helping first generation students navigate the college admissions process. Since then, Liz has worked as a college essay coach and an independent educational consultant for clients across the country.

With a Certificate in College Counseling and a concentration in International Education from UCLA’s graduate program, Liz has successfully coached students from diverse backgrounds to earn acceptances at universities in and outside of the US. 

With extensive experience studying and living abroad, Liz brings her enthusiasm for helping others discover their path to college outside of the US. When she is not college counseling, Liz enjoys traveling (she’s been to over 25 countries), yoga, and pottery.
