Patty R. Adams is a former school counselor who's helped hundreds of students (and just as many stressed-out parents) navigate the complicated, often overwhelming college admissions process. With a front-row seat to the emotional and financial toll it can take, she wrote Don't Go Broke Paying for College to be the guide she wishes every family had. Drawing on her background in education, counseling, and college planning, Patty breaks down the financial aid maze into clear, manageable steps-no jargon, no scare tactics, just real solutions. She's passionate about helping families make confident, informed decisions that protect both their child's future and their own financial sanity. When she's not writing or busting FAFSA myths, Patty can be found cheering on last-minute scholarship wins, editing college essays, or helping parents breathe a little easier about the road ahead.
