I am a former graduate school dean. During 30+ years in higher education I taught at Boston, Northeastern and Brandeis Universities and was a Dean at Boston University and at Brandeis University. As the Associate Dean for Graduate Education at Brandeis University I created programs affecting the academic lives of 800 M.A. and Ph.D. students each year. I oversaw admissions procedures and academic policies governing students and worked closely with them to successfully apply for Fulbright, DAAD and other fellowships. 

I am currently a writing consultant and editor to graduate students at Harvard University and run my own consulting company. I provide writing assistance to students applying to college and graduate school. I also assist graduate students who are having problems completing their PhD dissertations. I am an editor, a consultant and a coach.
