Bio
Hello! My name is Joseph and I am excited to have the opportunity to work with you as an admission advisor. As an advisor, I believe in a mentorship model in which my I not only advise my students step by step through the admission process, but also serve as a source of advice, guidance, and at time counseling through the stresses of high school and the college process. My academic background is in anthropology, having both my BA from Gettysburg College and my MA from Columbia University in the subject. I am currently pursuing my PhD in anthropology at the University of California - Davis with my research focusing on Urban studies and youth perception in Sarajevo. My admission experience includes working as a senior intern in the Gettysburg College Admissions Office, being a former Admissions Officer at Truman State University, and having multiple years of professional admission advising experience. Fun fact about me, I have been to 63 different countries.
