Isabella Bertossi

Social Media and Creative Director

“As a dual athlete who has participated in both soccer and swimming on the NCAA college level, I know the struggles of moving away from family and a familiar routine to achieve your dreams. We want to empower you to dream big, work relentlessly, and achieve whatever you put your mind to. We will give you the resources to help you succeed. It's not just about finding a college or team; it's about discovering a pathway to success that merges personal passion with academic excellence.”
