Barry Saeger, M.S.

I want to help bring your goals to life. As your goals coach, I will guide you every step of the way.

Whether you’re figuring out higher education, career building, enrollment and life advice, I’m here to help. My coaching experience focuses on helping individuals explore and define personal, professional and financial goals.

When I’m not helping my clients achieve their goals, you can find me spending time with my wife and three children and coaching youth sports in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area.
