About Kathryn Edin

The experience with the AAE team was great and felt like they tried to gain a deep understanding of the event and visit from the beginning. The communication was incredibly timely and detailed and they were patient with us as we finalized details. Throughout Dr. Edin’s visit, they stayed in communication to make sure everything was going well and I felt incredibly supported throughout the entire process. The relationship with the AAE team felt much more personal than other interactions we’ve had with agencies in the past, and it was much appreciated. Dr. Edin was flexible, personable, and made sure to treat each group like they were her only group that day. She made a great impression on our campus and the reviews have been phenomenal thus far.
