About Me

LaShawn Robertson, Director of College Programs, has spent 10 years in college admissions and access, helping under-resourced students build the knowledge and confidence to pursue higher education. She earned her Bachelor's from the University of Louisiana Lafayette, where she also worked as an Admissions Counselor and Recruiter from 2007-2014, before transitioning into college access work at the Baton Rouge Youth Coalition in 2014, helping students find best-fit colleges with minimal debt.

LaShawn is driven by a belief that all students, regardless of socioeconomic status, deserve the chance to pursue and be prepared for higher education. In her free time, she enjoys family, cooking, watching basketball, and new adventures.
