My name is Jose Ireta and I look forward to working with you. I was born and raised in California, but recently relocated to Texas, where everything is bigger! I have a bachelor’s degree in Speech Communication from the California State University system and hold two master’s degrees, one in Counseling and one in Educational Administration, both were earned from the Graduate School of Education at California Lutheran University. I have been assisting students in the college application process since 1998. I recently retired from full time work from an International Baccalaureate High School where I worked from 2009 - 2021. Many of my former students have been admitted to UCLA, UC Berkeley, USC, Stanford as well as other prestigious universities. I believe in Stephen Covey’s 7 Habits of Highly Successful People…let’s start with the big picture in mind, your goal, and then chart a path on how to get there! I look forward to working with you.
