About Me

Alex Trempus has spent her career helping students and families navigate college admissions, gaining insider insight through work in the admission offices of George Washington University, American University, Babson College, and UCLA. As Director of College Counseling at the International High School of San Francisco, she supported hundreds of students applying to selective colleges in the U.S. and abroad, becoming a recognized expert in international college admission.

Alex has presented at NACAC's national conference and regional conferences (WACAC and NJACAC) on predictive analytics in admissions, and currently serves on the Counselor Advisory Board for the University of Toronto. She holds a BA in International Affairs & Cultural Anthropology from GWU and an MBA from American University. In her free time, she hikes Northern California's coastal and redwood trails with her wife, Daniel, and combines her love of travel with a passion for roller coasters as an official reviewer for the Golden Ticket Awards, the amusement park industry's top honors.
