Joakim Frisk – Executive Director
I am the founder and owner of Bluechip Study USA and attended Plymouth State University, NH and graduated in 1987. I played soccer at Plymouth for four years and we were ranked number one in the country and also reached the Final Four. These were the best years of my life and formed me into the person I am today and helped in my decision to work with international education. I have been involved in international education for over 30 years.
My passion still today is helping young students fulfill their dreams of going abroad to study. Knowing that one has helped out and changed the lives of over 15 000 students over the years is an awesome feeling.

John Falke – Student Athlete Consultant
I had the privilege of studying and playing tennis at an elite level for four years in North Carolina, a journey that truly shaped me. It taught me invaluable lessons both on and off the court.
Today, my motivation is to help other young people embark on the same incredible journey that I had. For me, it’s about seeing students grow, develop, and realize their dreams—whether academically or in sports—and being able to support them on their path to the U.S. is something I value immensely.
