Why Choose Navi?

Navigate

No matter your background, the application process can be daunting and complicated. I have extensive experience working around common pitfalls and following key steps in the application timeline (i.e. creating a college list, requesting rec letters, filling out Common App, writing essays, preparing for interviews or campus visits, applying for scholarships, etc.). With my expertise, navigating the process will be smooth sailing.

No matter your background or college prep resources, Navi will help guide you around common pitfalls and through key steps in the application timeline.

Advocate

I always advocate for each student’s best interests, and provide guidance according to what best supports their goals. I work with each student to develop a personalized plan to craft excellent applications that will demonstrate that they are a good fit for their top choices. Ultimately, each of my student’s success, self-confidence, and satisfaction is my top priority, and I want them to feel supported throughout the process.

Together, we will craft a unique plan that caters to your individual needs with personalized support, while also accommodating to your busy schedule.

Visionary

When trying to stand out from the masses of other applicants, it takes creative vision to help highlight what makes each student unique without falling into overused clichés. Other than basic academic profiles, colleges want to see a human touch through creative personal statements, supplemental essays, and demonstrated interest. I will help you develop original ideas and high quality work to bolster your applications.

Navi strives to help each student find their voice when expressing their unique perspectives and experiences through their applications, to help them stand out.

In-The-Know

In the ever-changing landscape of higher education, I am constantly conducting my own industry research to stay ahead of the game and craft savvy strategies to maximize my students’ admissions prospects. Furthermore, transparency is my top priority: I always keep students and parents in the loop to make sure we are all on the same page about where we stand in the process.

We offer a fresh perspective on the industry based on years of experience and working with over 100 students with diverse academic and extracurricular profiles.

Testimonials

Working with Alex was an exceptional experience

Working with Alex was an exceptional experience that truly made a positive impact on my journey towards higher education. Her expertise, guidance, and support throughout the application process were invaluable. Her deep understanding of college admissions, combined with her personalized approach, helped me navigate the complexities with confidence and clarity.

Not only did Alex provide insightful advice on crafting compelling essays and preparing for interviews, but she also created a sense of empowerment within me.

I am grateful for her commitment, professionalism, and the individualized attention she provided. Thanks to her guidance, I was able to present my best self to the admissions committees and secure admission to more than 4 great schools.

I wholeheartedly endorse and recommend her services to any student seeking guidance on their college applications. I am really confident that others will also benefit immensely from her guidance and expertise on college applications.

Working with Alex was the best decision

Working with Alex was the best decision we could have made in this college application process. Alex is young enough that my daughter valued her opinion and she loved the fact that she was ‘current’. Alex was certainly wise enough to know how to get her to really look inside and bring out the best she has to offer in this discovery and writing process.

Alex was able to take the tension away between parent and child yet I knew it was getting done in a timely manner. We worked with her remotely and it was perfect, we didn’t need to be in front of her to get the best from her! My daughter has contacted her since to proofread a speech and loves her editorial critiques. We would excitedly recommend Alex to anyone going through this process… and already have!

Working with Alex was honestly an incomparable experience

Alex was incredibly instrumental in my college application journey

Alex was incredibly instrumental in my college application journey, providing invaluable assistance every step of the way. Her expertise in brainstorming, organizing, and seamlessly connecting ideas proved to be immensely beneficial. I firmly believe that her guidance played a significant role in my acceptance to Carnegie Mellon University. By helping me effectively communicate my skills and extracurricular activities in a unique manner, she enabled my essays to shine amidst a sea of applicants

Beyond her ability to convey ideas authentically and captivate readers, Alex exhibited exceptional accessibility, and an unwavering openness to new perspectives throughout the process. However, what truly convinced me to collaborate with her was her genuine investment in my applications and her sincere dedication to my success. She devoted hours into proofreading and editing the essays until both of us were completely convinced with the results. Even though this might sound like tedious work, she demonstrated a positive attitude in every step of the way. Overall, I am very grateful for Alex’s help, and I would definitely recommend her to any student who wants to get into any university, especially the top ones.

Working with Alex was game-changing.

Working with Alex was game-changing. Through the entire process of applying to colleges, she guided me and did an incredible job in helping me sort through my thoughts and narrow down my list of schools. She is attentive, organized, and easy to communicate with. From creating a resume, working with me on my common app essay, and various supplemental essays, Alex was a huge part of showing colleges my strong suits. I was accepted into all the schools I applied to and will be attending my top choice, Northeastern University in the fall! I could not recommend her enough!
