We engaged Sue Erickson with Bright Futures Consulting to help me and my son Hunter navigate the college application process. Sue was instrumental in helping us map out a plan to get started and focus on what was important in each stage of the process. Sue met with Hunter several times on his own and this helped him figure out what was important to him. Sue was amazing at role playing with Hunter to answer questions asked through the college interview process. Sue coached me through the scholarship maze so that I could find the scholarships that fit Hunter. I would recommend Sue to anyone who needs a nudge or needs detailed help in guiding their son or daughter through the college application process.

Sue's LinkedIn summary is absolutely what you can expect from her. I have had the good fortune to collaborate with her on many projects and professional development training. Sue is thoughtful, insightful, approachable, and brings her character and heart into all that she endeavors.
