What We Do

Tackling a dissertation is daunting and represents the pinnacle of academic achievement. Developing a research focus, researching extant literature, selecting a methodology, conducting original research, analyzing your data, and writing everything up in a uniquely challenging format can easily overwhelm you throughout the project. That’s where we help.

We coach you through the process, help you manage the project, act as your accountability partner, give you constructive feedback, and turn potential pitfalls and weaknesses into advantages. We make sure you cover all the sections that you need to include in each chapter, act as your sounding board to talk through ideas, nudge you when you are stuck, and ensure your argument follows logical reasoning and presents a cohesive case.

In addition, we review, revise, and edit your dissertation to confirm it conveys your message clearly and distinctly and conforms to the appropriate style (APA, AMA, Chicago, MLA, etc.), and the prevailing style requirements of your graduate college.
