| Introduction | Elizete is an accomplished professional passionate about mentoring and coaching those around her. An avid learner, Elizete holds BA/MBA degrees from Lafayette College and UC Berkeley and certificates from Harvard and NYU. Most recently, she completed her certificate in College Counseling at UCLA as she works with international students applying to US/UK universities. Originally from Puerto Rico, she has lived in San Juan, São Paulo, Miami, New York and London. Her family is multinational- she is married to Alain (½ French ½ Dutch), and has 3 young adult children who are American, French and Brazilian. In fact, Elizete became interested in college counseling when she started helping her own children in this process over 10 years ago. Elizete has successfully coached students and mentored first generation students in the college applications process. Prior to this, Elizete's career spanned from marketing in packaged good multinational companies in Latin America to a microfinance NGO providing loans and financial literacy to low income entrepreneurs in the U.S. For fun, Elizete laughs, reads, travels and plays tennis. |
