Danielle Lucio

Danielle has been working with students for over 15 years, and nothing is more exhilarating to her than helping her students achieve their goals. She was born and raised in Southern California and is intimately familiar with a number of the schools and districts including Walnut, Orange, Tustin and Irvine. From a young age, she had two very firm goals set in mind: to attend UCLA and to establish a career in education.

After graduating from UCLA with two degrees in Literature, Danielle also pursued a Master's degree in English Literature and has been teaching and counseling ever since. She was an assistant teacher at UCLA for several semesters and has also taught as an Adjunct Professor of English at Chapman University in Orange. It is with strong admiration for both written and spoken word that she encourages students to explore creative enterprises and find unique methods of expression that allow them to shine on their college applications.

Through over a decade of admissions counseling, Danielle has been fortunate to see all of her students achieve great feats throughout their high school years. Many of these students have gone on to receive acceptances from Top 25 US colleges including the Ivies and all of the UC’s. No matter what university Danielle’s students attend, her true desire is that they all find the perfect college for them. She is deeply committed to sharing this amazing journey with every student.
