Adam O’Neal
“Advising is the art of helping others discover their destination, set a course to get there, and stay engaged in making the course corrections to when necessary. I may only be with my students until they reach the first port of call, but life is a journey, not one destination, so I want to equip them with the skills, knowledge, and confidence to manage their ongoing voyage, wherever they choose to go.“
