Our Services
Our Team
Rebecca and Staci initiated their collaborative journey over 15 years ago when they found themselves part of the same 12th-grade English department team. Since then, they have consistently worked in close partnership on numerous projects. Their shared passion for assisting students through the college application process led them to venture beyond the classroom and into the private sector. Both Staci and Rebecca have obtained certificates as independent educational consultants from the University of California Irvine.

"Pelman and Stone made the daunting task of applying to college more manageable for me. I cannot recommend them enough!! I don't think I would've even gotten into the college I'm going to without them. If I could rate them 6/5 I would!"
