About Me


Felecia aspires to be the college admissions consultant she wishes she had when her family navigated the complex and overwhelming college admissions process and decided which college was the best option.



Felecia has 11 years of experience in higher education, working in various areas such as admissions, retention, academic advising, and student success. At the University of New Haven, she was the founding Director of a First-Year Success Center and focused on supporting students in their transition to college by providing holistic coaching support and connecting students to campus resources. Felecia also served as a Director of the Student Success Center in the College of Science and Mathematics, which offered academic advising and programs to support degree completion and connect students to career-connected learning opportunities. Through these experiences, Felecia developed an understanding of the college landscape, the admissions process, and factors contributing to students' college and career success.



Felecia later transitioned to a role in K-12 to help support students earlier in their educational careers, helping them prepare for success on their post-secondary paths. Felecia supports students in the final steps of the decision-making process, offering college matriculation and transitional support, developing partnerships with colleges and universities, and advising college students as they earn their degrees and obtain employment. A recent focus of Felecia’s work is building college AND career awareness in the post-secondary planning process to empower students, build their confidence, and make connections between their interests, college options, and future aspirations. Felecia loves playing matchmaker and helping students find a college and/or career that they love and meets their wants and needs. She also aims to simplify the process and alleviate some of the stress of making an informed college decision.



As a college admissions consultant, students and families can expect a student-centered, collaborative partnership. Felecia will break down the process for students, actively listening to stories, helping students identify assets and talents, encourage self-reflection on what is most important in a college and why, help find scholarships to finance education, provide clear and achievable action steps to move them through the process, and support students every step of the way. At the end of the process, Felecia hopes that students feel empowered in selecting the best choice for them and are 100% confident in their college decision! She will also make sure students and families are aware of the next steps to successfully matriculate to college and have a plan for connecting to campus resources and people.



Outside of Felecia’s work in college access and success, she enjoys watching and playing sports, reading, spending time outdoors with her family, and playing at the local playgrounds with her children Elijah, Noah, and Amaya.
