A magna cum laude graduate from the University of Pennsylvania, Craig earned his Certificate in College Counseling from UCLA and worked in both Penn’s Office of Undergraduate Admissions and Office of International Programs before relocating to New York City to work as a communications consultant. In New York, Craig developed innovative communication and investor relations strategies for some of the world’s most successful corporations.
Craig eventually earned an MA in Educational Administration and Leadership, served as an admissions officer for a public university, and led innovative and highly successful college and career counseling offices at high schools in Baltimore, West Palm Beach, and Rio de Janeiro. His myriad experiences allow him to be the strongest possible advocate for high school students and parents as they navigate the college admissions process.
Craig founded a one-man college consulting practice in 2006. Over the next eight years this small operation grew leaps and bounds. What started with just one Baltimore-based client in March of 2006, served its 1,000th client, located, in of all places, Alexandria, Egypt, in 2014.
