Before the Application with Geary Woolfolk
This week, we meet with Geary Woolfolk, the founder and passionate leader of Woolfolk Works in Atlanta, Georgia. Geary is a full-time IT Engineer at Travel Port, but he sets aside time outside the workplace to mentor and support youth and families pursuing post-secondary education.
Geary knows how expensive colleges, universities, and other training institutions can be. That's why he wrote the book Before the Application: How to Become the Ideal College Candidate.
We are honored to host him this week, and we talk about engaging our students, families, and teachers, in participating and working towards the goal of a free post-secondary education so they can graduate free from debt, and also be the best they can be to charge into the world as well-trained adults!
Geary Woolfolk has held a 31-year-long career as a computer engineer at Delta Airlines and Travelport, as well as being the proud father of three sons who all received full-ride academic scholarships to their respective colleges.
When he and his wife, Dedra, saw the state of the costs associated with going to college, they worked as a team and were determined to lead their sons down a path that would allow them to not pay a penny for their post-secondary education. This led to a passionate determination to help other families do the same.
He founded Woolfolk Works, where he works with students and families to follow this mission. He also works with other groups to help them work toward the same goals.
His goal is to use his mentorship and leadership experience to assist as many young people as possible towards also reaching their college admissions dreams!
His book: Before the Application: How to Become the Ideal College Candidate.
