Michele E. Cushnie, MPA, MA, Ph.D.

 

Michele has been instinctively and professionally equipped to help students find their niche colleges.  Her innate passion to see young people explore and discover their talents and abilities gives her a unique advantage in her role as an educational consultant.  Her dedication to excellence impels her to go beyond the call of duty.  Her desire is to see young people thrive so that they are perfectly poised for greatness. 

Michele started working with students when she was a graduate student in college.  Her many roles include an academic advisor, an instructor at summer camps for high school students, a mentor for youth, a teacher in the public schools, a college administrator, and a college lecturer.   She relishes interacting and working with the students of all ages.

Her dedication to helping students succeed has propelled her to start MishCuch Education Consulting. She provides in-depth and effective college guidance and counseling to high school students and their families who desire the best college fit.   Michele’s philosophy is “True education means more than the pursual of a certain course of study. It means more than a preparation for the life that now is. It has to do with the whole being, and with the whole period of existence possible to man. It is the harmonious development of the physical, the mental, and the spiritual powers. It prepares the student for the joy of service in this world and for the higher joy of wider service in the world to come" (E.G. White, 1903).

Michele received her MPA from Drake University, her MA and Ph.D. from The Ohio State University.  She completed the Independent Educational Consultant Certificate, at University of California-Irvine.
