ABOUT US
My name is Lisa Gosweiler. I am a mom of two (a recent college grad & a current college graduate student) and a wife of 30 years, married to my best friend and business partner. After 22 years as a pediatric physical therapist I moved into the college planning and loan space to help my own children plan and pay for their education, but I soon discovered how much I loved it.
I am passionate, dare I say even nerdy, about all things student loan and college financial planning. It is time to get you on an individualized action plan to successfully navigate student loan pre-planning, repayment and forgiveness without the overwhelm. I am a CSLP – Certified Student Loan Professional – and here to help you find your personal path to student loan debt freedom.
