Sonja Montiel on Clubhouse

Bio

Sonja Montiel founded College Confidence in 2002 with the philosophy that college planning must be driven by teens through reflection, transparency, and accountability, which can only be done with parents/caregivers who are intentionally supportive. She has helped thousands of teens and their families from the United States, Canada, New Zealand, and China through their college planning experience where emotional and physical health are the priority. She is on a mission to shift our college-bound culture so that teens and their families are no longer obsessed with “getting in”...not any more.

Sonja has more than twenty-one years in college admissions with extensive experience in freshman, transfer, and international admissions. She has served on multiple committees and boards for high schools, professional associations, and non-profit organizations that focus on improving the college admission process in the United States.

Most recently, Sonja co-founded and co-host “The DH (Decided Heart) Effect” with Hilary Bilbrey. Together they invite those who have acted on their decided heart experiences to live out their purpose and make an impact for the greater good.
