Entering the Empowerly Program with Limited College Knowledge, I Quickly Connected with Raisa as My Counselor**

**When I began the Empowerly journey, I wasn’t very familiar with college or the application steps. However, by our second meeting with Raisa, I instantly felt she was the perfect counselor for me. She’s been incredibly supportive, helping me craft my essays and navigate applications, and she always provides knowledgeable answers to my questions. I’m grateful to be working through this process with hershe truly is one of the best counselors available!
