Hello! I am a PhD-trained active academic researcher with industry experience. Additionally, I have an MBA in Finance, an MS in Mathematical Finance, and an MS in Business Administration. I content-edit, revise, and develop novel content for academic manuscripts, and dissertations in various academic disciplines. In addition, I respond to reviewer comments for journal articles in the R&R stage of publication. Finally, I am a peer-reviewer for top-tier academic journals, including the Academy of Management Journal, Strategic Management Journal, Academy of Management Review, and the Journal of Financial Economics.
The dissertation process is both an intellectual and emotional journey that is immensely stressful. I pride myself on providing academic and emotional support for Ph.D. students throughout the entire process. To date, I have worked on 61 dissertations. I am always available for my students, work meticulously to pre-emptively reduce committee comments after submission, and respond to committee feedback thoroughly with support from established top-tier literature. In addition, I have had the privilege of working with dozens of students to complete their dissertations and graduate successfully. Being called "Doctor" is hard work; taking the journey with someone else makes the process much more bearable.
Working with faculty on manuscripts slated for publication or those in the R&R process creates an incredible amount of stress for faculty, especially those still seeking tenure. I specialize in reviewing, content-editing, and responding to reviewer comments. Additionally, I work with a large number of faculty that are non-native speakers of English to revise and craft existing writing to elevate the manuscript, create cohesion, and make the manuscript far more impactful.
I have twelve years of experience editing college essays and letters of intent for students applying to undergraduate, graduate, and Ph.D. programs. I worked for an elite academic consultancy firm specializing in application materials for Ivy League university admissions, including personal statements and essays. Additionally, I have served as a graduate school's admissions committee member.
I provide consulting services for entrepreneurs and small-business owners, such as strategic business planning (including writing plans for funding), quality management initiatives, and M&A due diligence. Before my time in the ivory tower of academia, I spent several years working in a boutique M&A firm performing industry and company-specific research, developing pitch materials, and performing firm valuations.
My rate starts at $95/hour, but the final rate depends on the project's scope and is communicated in the proposal. I will always send honest proposals with a rate that does not change during the project. It is essential to be transparent and sincere when engaging with clients.
I hope to work with you soon!
