Students receive individualized guidance to engage in extracurricular activities that contribute to their intellectual and personal growth.
Engage your student with some of the hundreds of local community opportunities, summer programs and internships from my exclusive, up-to-date listings.
Build a Unique Deep Initiative
Our experience working in various start-ups allows us to uniquely help your student create a deep initiative that will not only build self-confidence, but also allow them to delve deeply into a passion. They could build an organization from scratch, conjure up an invention or product, craft a unique research project or more!
While these accomplishments are extremely valuable for admission to selective colleges, more importantly, they often help students truly connect their interests and talents with study and a career they will really love.
Gain Deep Knowledge through Research Projects
Students can work with an expert academic mentor to explore their interests and gain mentorship in a field.
Let us guide you in how to approach university faculty to become a research assistant in an ongoing research project. In addition, we can recommend organizations that can identify PhD candidates and expert mentors from the most eminent universities to guide students through an independent research project tailored to their interests.

Self Discovery & Life Mission/Purpose
Finding Meaning
Meaning is not something you stumble across...
Meaning is something you build into your life.
You build it out of your own past, out of your affections and loyalties,
out of the experience of humankind as it is passed on to you,
out of your own talent and understanding,
out of the things you believe in, out of the things and people you love,
out of the values for which you are willing to sacrifice something.
The ingredients are there.
You are the only one who can put them together into that unique pattern
that will be your life. Let it be a life that has dignity and meaning for you.
If it does, then the particular balance of success or failure is of less account.
