Global University Advisors

Meet the father-son team behind Global University Advisors

What began as a life spent crossing borders became something far more meaningful for the father-son team of Jack and Christian. From exploring the medinas of Morocco and visiting universities in London to climbing pyramids in Egypt and sharing Christmas dinners across language barriers, their experiences have been far from ordinary. Jack built his career across seven international schools—teaching, mentoring, and helping shape global college counseling—while Christian grew up as a true third culture kid, learning firsthand what it means to belong everywhere and nowhere at once.

Today, they bring that shared perspective into one of the few father-son educational consulting practices, working with students from China, Taiwan, Brazil, Spain, Lebanon, Nigeria, India, and beyond. Combining professional expertise with lived experience, they guide students through applications in addition to the complexities of their own global stories—helping them turn a life across cultures into a future full of potential, academically and personally.
