Greetings! I am a Former Admissions Officer based near Boston, Massachusetts. During my career in higher education, I’ve held a variety of roles in higher education as a senior administrator and admissions director, professor, advisor, and executive search consultant. I worked at Harvard University for over 25 years, much of it as associate director of admissions at the Graduate School of Education, where I led international recruitment and graduate admissions and recruited students from around the world to study at Harvard. I completed my master’s and doctoral degrees in educational leadership at Harvard, enjoying a great opportunity to study with faculty who were also my colleagues. Before my graduate studies, I attended Stony Brook University in New York for my bachelor’s degree in English.
In addition to being a university administrator, I’ve also taught as an assistant professor at Salem State University in Massachusetts, and each year I travel to Dijon, France to teach a course leadership and strategy to international masters business students as a visiting lecturer at the Burgundy School of Business. I’ve had the incredible honor to teach and lecture throughout Europe and Latin America, and consulted with many top universities and colleges in the U.S.
My passion is working with students, both graduate and undergraduate, and helping them think about career choices and access to colleges and universities. I’ve advised many students at Harvard College as an academic advisor and continue to serve as a faculty advisor at Harvard’s Lowell House, one of its undergraduate residential communities. As an admissions consultant, I’ve worked with applicants to graduate school (education, business, public policy/health, and law) and to colleges (undergraduate). I’ve counseled students from all over the world, and throughout Asia, on the admissions process, and love teaching and advising international students. On a personal note, I’m the proud father of three adult children: one is studying in veterinary school and two are seniors in college, so I’m experienced in the admissions process as a parent as well. I’m very excited to work with you!
