Coaching for Academics:

Services for Graduate Students to Seasoned PhDs

The realities of academic employment are complex and poorly understood by most outside the industry. Student debt, low-income ceilings, and the adjunct crisis can make for rocky starts in this business, and an ever-changing landscape in higher education may spell unexpected transition for some PhDs later down the line. Talk to me as early in the process as you can, and check out my essay, "A Lifetime of Low Wages and Student Debt" to better understand what might be at stake without a smart strategy. Our initial conversation is free, and I offer a number of free resources to academics facing certain challenges.

For graduate school hopefuls

I make it easier to determine if an advanced degree in a given industry and from a given program will ultimately be worth your while. Talk to me at any stage in your grad school journey, but generally, the earlier the better.

For those navigating the academic job market

Whether you are finishing a dissertation and on the academic job market for the first time or you are an experienced faculty member looking for a better fit, I offer advice, search help, and materials reviews.

For those transitioning into or out of academia

I offer skills assessments, career exploration, job possibilities, and help converting an academic CV into a competitive resume (and vice versa).
