Competitive Edge College Advisors was founded in New Canaan in 2013 by Brent Haney, Lee Jones, Doug Richardson and Kevin Rusch. All partners had careers in business prior to entering the education field, including finance, marketing and publishing. While the original focus was on helping student athletes find the right college, today 50 percent of students counseled are non-athletes, and to date, CECA has placed over 200 students in colleges and universities throughout the country .
