Courtney spent the earlier part of her career working in Los Angeles in both production and public relations, and in the Chicago area in social media content development.

In 2021, Courtney joined Milestone College Prep as a College Advisor. Courtney enjoys identifying the unique needs of each student in order to help select colleges where they will thrive socially, emotionally, academically while balancing the family’s financial commitment. Courtney also specializes in helping college students transition between colleges, finding a better fit when the first choice was not optimal, as well as helping students find the gap year options that are right for them. As with college selection, Courtney focuses on the needs of the individual client in these particular areas.
