Coaches professionally
60+ people coached for PhD Programs
With a Ph.D. in Organizational Behavior from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (where I also took all of the core courses required for a Strategy Ph.D.), I bring a wealth of academic and practical experience to my coaching. Before completing my Ph.D. I worked in industry and earned an MBA degree, so I can help you integrate real-world experience into your application strategy. Having served on the admissions committee at UNC, I possess firsthand knowledge of what top programs are looking for in Ph.D. candidates. Over the years, I've successfully coached 62 individuals, helping them navigate the complexities of the Ph.D. application process. Let's work together to craft a compelling application that showcases your unique strengths and potential. Reach out to start your journey towards a successful Ph.D. application.
