Krista Anderson is a certified Executive Function and ADHD Coach who works with college-bound high school seniors and college students. She helps students build the skills they need to succeed in college like planning, time management, overcoming procrastination, study strategies, and self-advocacy - especially when deadlines and expectations feel overwhelming.
Krista brings over 20 years of experience in leadership development and student support, including teaching graduate-level courses and coaching students at community colleges, private colleges, and large universities. She combines professional expertise with lived experience to help students build confidence and independence as they prepare for college and beyond.
In our conversation, Krista and I discussed:
What the term “executive function” means, and why it’s critical for college readiness.
Why students struggle with deadlines, organization, and getting things done.
How students can make a successful transition from the “guardrails” of high school to the unstructured environment of college.
Practical tips to help students build independence.
What healthy, supportive involvement from parents looks like as students finish up
