Dave has been a key part of my success as a D1 College Athlete. From the first email, he has been a constant source of support to my family and me as I started my journey as a student-athlete. Dave's depth of knowledge and experience in the field of NCAA collegiate sports is unmatched. He has been a D1 coach before and knows people in the industry and the ins and outs of the process of getting recruited like the back of his hand. Throughout the whole process, I felt confident as soon as I started working with Dave that I would find the right college for me and a college that fit all of my needs. If you are working towards being recruited for a college team, I believe you would be doing yourself a disservice by not including Dave in your search for the right college. He will make sure he can get you on the right path to the right college for you and continue his incredible support on your collegiate journey long after you are recruited.

Dave was incredibly helpful in my search for a college.  He explained in detail the different divisions of college athletics, and was super knowledgeable about so many possible schools with soccer programs and my potential major, that could be a fit for me.  Dave is easy to talk to, so responsive and always available and really knows the sports world of colleges.  Thanks to Dave I am playing soccer for a great University.  Highly recommend!

I can't say enough good things about Dave!!

We decided that we needed help a little late in the game (tail-end of our daughter's junior year.)  I was an athlete in college and I was pretty familiar with the recruiting process. I thought, "We're good.  I got this."  I most definitely did not have it - at all.   Luckily I ran across a podcast featuring Dave, and he had plans where I had nothing.

He was very focused on hearing what our daughter wanted to get out of her college experience not just hearing about how great she was at soccer.  He worked with Olivia's particular set of accomplishments and made her feel confident about reaching out to coaches.  He gave her advice on what to look at when visiting and advice on meeting coaches.  He was her advocate and her voice of reason.  As a mom of a teenager, it was a role that I could never have played effectively.

He's insightful and has a tremendous amount of knowledge.  If you mention a school, he can rattle off fifteen facts about the soccer program, the academics and the scenery!  Our daughter ultimately found a great school that will likely provide exactly what she's looking for in her next four years, and that school wasn't even on our radar when we started working with Dave.

As a bonus, Dave is hilarious.  I left every one of our calls with a sense of relief and a feeling that Liv was really well-equipped to make the biggest decision of her life so far.   We never would have made it through this process without Dave's guidance!

Dave has simply been an outstanding consultant. As a high school college advisor I really don't know enough above college athletics or sports to insure my students are getting correct information. I know the term NCAA! I know there are different divisions! But I had no idea other sports options existed. I also really don't' have a strong enough understanding of NCAA rules and regulations to help my students along the way. He is an outstanding partner.

I especially appreciate that he has worked as a coach in a college setting. It give a peace of mind knowing that I am working with a real expert. He also really cares about these kids and wants the best for them.

Highly recommend Dave as both a college advisor for students and their families as well as consultant for other professionals who need guidance.

Dave is our hero. We found Dave at the final hour of our son’s commitment process, and while we wish we had found him sooner, he jumped right in and helped us to the finish line. He is professional, kind, thorough, grounded…he knows his stuff! After the few short weeks we spent working with him, it felt like we had been working with him for years. He is rooted in the athletic community and held in high regards. We HIGHLY recommend that if you or your child is an athlete in high school that you include Dave in the college search, recruitment and application and process.

I have been working with Dave and College Athletic Advisor for the past year through the Beyond Sports Foundation. I could not be more impressed with there commitment to helping student-athletes find the best possible college fit for them. Dave has a tremendous ability to communicate the most accurate information to students and families. He has helped us through working with student-athletes on an individual and group basis. I would highly recommend him for all of your student-athlete counseling needs.

Dave does an excellent job explaining the important details that goes into college recruitment. He goes above in beyond ensuring his clients understand the process from start to finish.

Dave helped me start off the college search process. Having three personally suggested colleges helped me find my starting place instead of drowning in a list of hundreds of colleges.
