Breaking The Radio Silence

Get Clear. Get Into Grad School. Get On With Your Life.

Ahem. Guess who’s back?

Things have been quiet around here for awhile. I took a hiatus – a pretty long one. As life would happen, around the same time that I started this website, I was making major moves and transitions off-line as well.

I started a position as a college professor. I jumped feet-first into a whirlwind of course development, lecture preparation, paper grading, office hours, and committee work. Summers were optional, they said. Um, let me tell you, not when you’ve got student loans!

As the new kid on the block, er, department, I made myself indispensable. I workshopped and conferenced my way to professional development glory. I went above and beyond to earn the coveted award of tenure at the college. And tenure, I did earn.

I’ve taught dozens of courses and literally thousands of students. I’ve gained experience in traditional and online classes. I’ve earned glowing teaching reviews. (Ahem, check my track record. Or maybe you already have).

In my spare time, Inner Evil Kermit propelled to me binge-watch entire Netflix series, but I shut him up when he said that my hiatus was so long that I needn’t bother coming back.

Leveling Up

I’m sorry to inform Inner Evil Kermit, but I have even more to offer grad school seekers today. I’ve taught and advised thousands more students. I’ve personally seen several off to grad school and prosper. I’ve leveled up in my career, and I’m leveraging that expertise to bring even more insight and excellence to this corner of the Web.

Earlier this year, I also elected to go back to school (yes, you read that right) and pursue professional certification in admissions consulting. I’m knee deep in readings and homework assignments with the goal of giving clients an even more valuable experience.

I’m also working diligently behind the scenes to retool this website and services that I offer (coming soon). I have so much in store for the future of Your Grad School Coach and cannot wait to share it with you!

I have availability to see coaching clients on a limited basis until the grand relaunch later this year. If you’d like to inquire about services, or reach out with a question, you can do so on my brand-new contact page.

Your brilliance belongs in grad school!

    I just found your site today (7/26/18), when I was told, since I already have a Master’s degree, the school I’m applying to (which my employer has a cohort with and will be paying 100% of the tuition) wants a “vision statement” of why I want to get another degree. Yours was the first link which popped up after I typed in my search criteria. I’m now obsessed with reading all of your blog entries, they are brilliant – and VERY helpful. I hope, even though I’m positive you’re crazy busy, you will find your way back to blogging so I can soak up some more of your knowledge. PS – I think you would be an AMAZING admissions counselor, if your guidance in real time is anything like your blog writing!
