WHAT PEOPLE SAY
ANONYMOUS, Ph.D.
Earned Tenure & Promotion
at Binghamton University
"Rhiannon helped me understand what tenure review committees were looking for, and successfully narrate the "through-lines" across what my reviewers had previously named 'disparate areas of research'. I would not have achieved tenure and promotion without her."
DEBORAH STANBURY, M.Div, Th.M.
Earned Master of Divinity
at University of Toronto
"[Rhiannon] has a remarkable ability to demystify academic writing. When writer's block or overwhelm struck, her concrete advice and unwavering encouragement were exactly what I needed to keep going."
MONICA BENTON PALMER, Ed.D.
Earned Doctorate of Education
at University of Pennsylvania
"Rhiannon helped me design [dissertation] chapters that incorporated my ideas clearly and coherently, and reflected a better organization… [She] provided me with moral support to help me move forward when I felt stuck."
