"As a school counselor, I saw the challenges my Native American students faced when trying to find colleges that honored and supported their cultural identity. Time and again, I searched for a resource that could guide them to institutions where they would feel seen, valued, and empowered. When I realized such a platform didn’t exist, I decided to create it myself. CollegeBound Journey is the result of my dedication to ensuring every Native student has access to culturally responsive guidance and opportunities that celebrate who they are."
