Shari has written THE ESSENTIAL COLLEGE ADMISSIONS HANDBOOK with her friend and colleague, Lisa Guss. Shari and Lisa met as undergraduate students at Tufts University. They each spent many years as alumni admissions interviewers for Tufts University, which is when they developed their passion for college admissions. Lisa and Shari have a shared philosophy: to help students through each critical step of the college process, while maintaining a sense of humor and harmony at home!
