About Julie

Visualize College Consulting: Julie Marsh

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here.

As a college consultant, I help my students uncover their unique personal qualities, guide them in exploring their visions for their future, and assist them in formulating plans to accomplish those goals. I believe that being a fellow parent is among my most important qualifications as a college counselor. I share your hopes and dreams, your anxieties and concerns, and I myself have agonized over how best to help my own children find their paths. I genuinely enjoy getting to know each of my students, and I feel a personal investment in the progress and outcome of their college search and application process.

My own educational and professional background includes a tour as an Air Force officer at the Pentagon, several years in the music industry in New York City, and pioneering the fields of online publishing and advertising. After completing the independent educational consulting certificate program at the University of California, Irvine, I began working with students and families across the US, from California to the Carolinas. I have visited dozens of colleges in person, attended information sessions for dozens more, and continue to learn about new programs at every opportunity so I can effectively guide students to best-fit colleges. I consult with students and families in my home office in the Denver suburbs, local coffee shops, and via Zoom for my clients outside the local area. While I have lived in Colorado for the past 20 years, I grew up in the midwest, and my hometown of Dayton, Ohio and my own high school (go Elks!) will always have a special place in my heart.
