SARA BERKEY

College Counselor

Sarah Berkey graduated from Eckerd College with a B.A. in Psychology and minors in Human Development and Leadership Studies. Sarah is a first-generation college student. During her time at Eckerd, she worked four different jobs in the admissions office: a tour guide, in the call center, giving information sessions, and as a student interviewer. After graduation, she moved to Charleston, SC, and worked in admissions at a medium-sized, public liberal arts and sciences university.

Over her two and a half years in admissions, she worked with students in 14 states and has read thousands of applications. Sarah not only read applications, but also traveled to high schools, college fairs, and interviews, as well as being the liaison for departmental scholarships and providing informational tours to other college planners across the country and world. She then completed the UCLA College Counseling program and started working full-time as an Independent Educational Consultant.

When Sarah is not working she enjoys traveling, spending time by the pool, finding new restaurants, and hanging out with her husband and corgi puppy, Tilly.
