About Lloyd Paradiso
Mr. Paradiso is a Director of Stratagee.com and the Editor of the firms content on school searches, placement and academic preparation.
The founder of the Admissions Authority LLC and an independent educational consultant, Mr. Paradiso's vast experience in the field spans over thirty years. He is a founding member and past president of the Independent Educational Consultants Association (IECA) and holds the designation of Certified Educational Planner. Mr. Paradiso is also a co-author of the new book, Strategy & Simplicity - for Private School and College Funding.
Mr. Paradiso's professional career is both varied and comprehensive. Initially, he served individual families by offering an in-depth evaluation of their child's academic profile, after which he suggested suitable institutions within the context of their specific priorities and expectations. Finally, Mr. Paradiso assisted parents and prospective students through the critical business of selecting the most appropriate school.
Corporations soon requested that he see their expatriate employees who would move frequently from one educational system to another - disrupting the schooling continuity of their children and creating many problems for both the family and the firm. In the course of working with such companies as Exxon Mobil, Hercules, RCA Ariola, Rockwell, Rhone-Poulenc Rorer and GlaxoSmithKline, he developed an international consulting model which now serves as an accepted standard.
The leader of workshops both here and abroad, Mr. Paradiso has also advised governments, boards of trustees and private agencies - in addition to working as a college counselor for a well-known private school. His services include educational counseling, private school, college and graduate program placement, professional seminars and executive training.
Mr. Paradiso participates actively in many professional conferences and is a member of the National Association for College Admissions Counseling (NACAC), the Pennsylvania Association for College Admissions Counseling (PACAC) and the College Board.
