About Me

Susie Valencia is a Certified Educational Planner based in Southern California who has worked with students and families throughout her career, including as a High School College Counselor in Temecula, CA before becoming an Independent Educational Consultant. Working privately allows her to individualize each student's self-discovery process around college and career exploration.

Susie gets to know each student through repeated one-on-one interactions, empowering them to invest in their own research and make confident, well-informed decisions — supporting families from initial discovery through application, enrollment, and beyond. She's a member of NACAC and a professional member of IECA.
