My name is Vince and I’m an independent college counselor with over 30 years of experience in education. I’m dedicated to helping high school students navigate the admissions process with confidence, providing expert guidance, essay review, and personalized support to ensure they submit the strongest applications possible.

I founded CW-Princeton LLC in 2016 after spending three years with Collegewise. Since then, I’ve worked with nearly 500 students worldwide, helping them identify their strengths, overcome challenges, and apply my signature three-step essay process to put their best foot forward.

Before launching my own practice, I served as an Assistant Director of Admission at Villanova University. I’ve shared my expertise as a presenter at the National Association for College Admission Counseling (NACAC) and as a guest speaker for Fortune 100 companies like Dow Chemical, Novo Nordisk, and Pfizer.

A proud 1994 graduate of Monmouth University, I earned my degree in Communications. During my time there, I was the sports editor of the school newspaper, The Outlook, the play-by-play announcer for the Men’s and Women’s Basketball teams, and a member of the 1992 Northeast Conference Champion tennis team.

My wife, Colleen, and I live in North Wales, PA, with our three children and two dogs, Ridley and Poppie. When I’m not reviewing college essays, I enjoy playing horseshoes and pickleball.
