This package provides start to finish, holistic support through the entire application process. I like to meet you where you are at, and we start with a core session focused on truly mapping your long-term goals and personal values to best identify which scholarships or fellowships will put you on the path you're looking for and make the most sense to invest your time. Depending on your goals, we can choose to work on various applications or deep dive on one specific opportunity. We will work on everything together: - from establishing a simple system to organize your entire process, documents, and deadlines, - your statement of grant purpose, - short answer questions, - letter of recommendation, - interview prep I'm here for all the questions, from the small ones (How do I remove 100 characters to hit the 1750 limit on my abstract?) to the big ones (Is Fulbright the right opportunity for me? Does it make sense to defer another offer to pursue this?) TLDR: goal/opportunity alignment, application guidance, interview preparation, strategic decision support, flexible feedback, a friend for the feelings in this crazy hectic competitive process. If you have any questions about the package, don't hesitate to ask.
