About Pat

While transitioning to retirement, I get to reflect on what an honor and privilege it has been to work with hundreds of families in the past 15 years through my two companies, ColPrep Tutoring, Inc. and Lewis Select College Consulting. I must also mention my amazing students during my 25+ years in middle school, high school, and college classrooms and as a Student Teacher Supervisor.

When I thought about stepping back, I knew I had to find the right person to carry these services into the future. I searched for someone for 18 months, and when I met Lee-Ashley, I knew I had finally found that individual. Her background in counseling is unparalleled, and she is indeed a true talent, as you will come to discover. 

We have been working together for quite some time, and Lee-Ashley will continue to offer all of our individualized services moving forward. I will remain as Senior Adviser for the foreseeable future.
