Being a home school parent going through the college application process for the first time, I was already anxious. When my daughter chose music schools, I had no knowledge or experience in this music world and became overwhelmed. Steve helped us right away with his calm, easy manner and valuable experience in the music school world. Very soon we had a target list of schools that matched my daughter’s goals and preferences. Steve helped us to stay focused with essay and resume reviews, song choice, and mock auditions. He helped connect us to private guitar teachers that help to challenge my daughter and he found advisors to help her with a very complicated score writing challenge. Each step through this complicated process, Steve was there to answer any questions and point us in the right direction. After a year of thoughtful and focused work, with Steve’s guidance, my daughter was so much more confident and mature in her choice of a music career and in herself. And I was confident that she chose the right college and we are very excited for her future! She was accepted to her first-choice school with a wonderful scholarship then we will always be so grateful to Steve!
