Marie brings nearly two decades of experience in international education, with deep expertise in high school counseling, admissions strategy, and family guidance. She previously served as both a High School Counselor and College Counselor at St. Mary's International School, where she was also a core member of the High School Admissions Team. In this role, Marie played a key part in establishing and refining high school admissions processes, represented the school at admissions and outreach events, and partnered closely with families from interviews through matriculation to support students’ academic readiness and personal fit.

At St. Mary’s, Marie guided students through pivotal transition points, helping them identify schools and colleges aligned with both their academic profiles and individual strengths. Known for her thoughtful, student-centered approach, she brings clarity and structure to complex, high-stakes admissions decisions.

Marie works with B&B families because she believes the strongest outcomes come from early, individualized guidance—well before decisions feel urgent. Having worked inside schools, she saw how families benefit when they understand both the visible admissions criteria and the less visible factors that shape real outcomes. Through B&B, she values the opportunity to partner proactively with families, helping them make informed, confident decisions that prioritize long-term student well-being.

Marie is a graduate of the International School of the Sacred Heart and holds a bachelor’s degree from The George Washington University and a master’s degree in School Counseling. She is a Licensed School Counselor, with a background spanning bilingual programs, international schools, and education technology—bringing a holistic view of student development across academic, social, and cultural dimensions.
