"I can't tell you how many times after meeting with you, Julia and I would turn to each other and say, 'What would we do without Peta?'! Your guidance was invaluable. It helped Julia to be organized, methodical, and sane in the complicated process of applying to colleges. You helped her figure out how to showcase her accomplishments and gave her excellent advice each step of the way, resulting in a long, impressive list of college acceptances. Most of all, you were so calm and kind, and we both really needed that!" Jan B., Woodland Hills » More
