Ms. Aziz is part college expert, part sociologist, and part therapist. She helped to guide my daughter through choosing, applying, and deciding on a college. She provided a thoughtful and compassionate sounding board, edited essays, and kept everyone on track. She was always available by email for questions and support. I would recommend Ms. Aziz to anyone who feels a little lost with the application process or is unsure how to navigate through this stressful endeavor.

My coach helped me with my job search process after I graduated from with my undergrad, and made that stressful time easier. She prepared me for interviews with mock interviews via Skype: I cannot tell you how helpful that was for my confidence. I also got great advice on my resume and cover letters, and I got the job i wanted. I later decided to pursue a graduate degree and apply for fellowships--a daunting and stressful task, as it required hours of diligent investigation and writing skills. So I reached out to my coach again. She helped me stay focused and to approach these problems with a step-by-step approach.  I was accepted at my top choice school (USC) and received merit money as well. My coach gave me professional, caring and compassionate guidance. She has helped me be successful, and I feel others will be as lucky to have a launchphase2 coach as I was.
