Hi. I'm Mike.

Over the past thirty years, I have been an English teacher, literacy specialist, and Response to Intervention (RtI) Coordinator. After helping hundreds of my AP Lang students with the college application process, I started College Quest Consulting to help students navigate the emotionally fraught world of college admissions (and hopefully have some fun along the way.)

01

Student Interest Survey

I take the time to get to know each of my clients personally. Part of that process involves a personal interest inventory that helps me get acquainted with a student's strengths, challenges, and priorities when it comes to choosing which college or university setting will be the best fit for them.

02

Customized College List

After taking the survey and discussing a variety of interests and priorities, I will come up with a customized list of higher education choices for the student to consider. We will keep working together until that list is a solid reflection of the student's unique personality and academic passions.

03

College Application Essay Support

College Quest students can get personalized support on their college application essays throughout the writing process. As a former AP English Language and Composition teacher, I always try to provide meaningful feedback that will provide admissions counselors with an authentic look at a student's unique gifts.

04

College Financial Coaching

As the student considers educational options, I will assist with filling out FAFSA as well as discussing college financing options.

Student Feedback

"I cannot forget the incredible letter you wrote for me. I cannot thank you enough, because now I get to venture on to the next leg of my adventure, and I'm excited to see where it takes me. I owe you for some of the now open doors and your kind words."

-Noah, Class of 2025

"You have genuine care for each and every student. I can tell how much time and effort you put into our education and I appreciate it."

-Catie, class of 2023

"I wanted to give up so many times, but I didn't because you believed in me. You have so much wisdom to share."

-Makayla, class of 2026

"I've never had someone that got so excited about something I did that they emailed me to congratulate me. It takes a pretty special person to care so much about their students and to share so completely in their successes and invest so fully in each one."

-Caitlynn, class of 2019
