I’m Lennix Foreman a.k.a. Mx. Nix —a former Director of College Counseling, licensed NYC school counselor and advisor with 15+ years of experience helping young people and their families navigate college, career, and everything in between.

I bring real-world strategy and deep care. I’ve spent my career walking students through the fine print of FAFSA, the weird logic of essays, the panic of picking a major, and the very real grief of growing up. I don’t sell formulas. I build relationships—and I hold space for complexity, humor, and surprise.

I’ve worked with thousands of students across public schools, nonprofits, and private settings. I’ve built and led college offices from the ground up, trained with national leaders in college access, and been named in Counseling That Changes Lives. I’m also a queer, neurodivergent parent who believes that guidance should be honest, strategic, and deeply human.
