Description
Are you considering applying to a Ph.D. program, but wondering whether it is right for you? I can help you determine whether pursuing a doctorate fits with your aspirations both for your career and your life. Obtaining a Ph.D. takes many years of hard effort, and you should have a clear-headed understanding of what the experience will be like before you make the decision to go for your doctorate. As someone who has successfully completed a Ph.D. program at an Ivy League school, I can offer you my experienced and honest perspective on what you stand to gain – and lose – by pursuing a Ph.D.

Expert advice for every step to your Ph.D.
I received my Ph.D. from the political science department at Columbia University. I did my undergraduate work at Stanford, earning a B.A. in international relations with honors in international security studies. I can provide expert advice on all stages of the Ph.D. journey, including how to craft your undergraduate education to best prepare you for a Ph.D. program, what the application process is like, what to expect in terms of coursework and teaching responsibilities, passing exams, writing and defending your dissertation proposal, and completing your dissertation.
