Meet Camilo Pereira
Founder & Lead Educational Consultant
Empowering students to become independent, self-aware and purpose-driven citizens of the world.
As a first generation college student with more than 25 years of strategic communications and marketing expertise across diverse industries, I bring a unique perspective to educational consulting that goes far beyond traditional college advising. My mission is simple yet powerful: help students discover and own their authentic stories while building the confidence and independence they need to thrive in college and beyond.
A Different Approach to College Consulting
My methodology combines comprehensive assessment tools, both quantitative and qualitative, with strategic insights honed through decades of professional experience. Rather than simply checking boxes or chasing admissions trends, I work one-on-one with students to uncover their genuine passions, clarify their goals, and help craft compelling narratives that reflect who they truly are.
"At Strategic Insight Communications, we don't write your child's story, we help them own it," Camilo explains. "Colleges aren't just looking for academic achievement; they're seeking future contributors to their community. My role is to help students present themselves authentically, showcasing not only what they've accomplished but who they are and what they'll contribute both inside and outside the classroom."
