While I manage the University of Iowa’s institutional nominations for a range of national fellowships, I am also a good resource for students who aren’t sure where to start when it comes to applying for scholarships.  

So, if you could use some help identifying potential opportunities, or want to talk through some of your worries about what reviewers want from applicants (SO MUCH would surprise you!), are trying to figure out if you are a good fit for a specific award, or what might help you strengthen your competitiveness for post-graduate study or research in the future, don’t hesitate to reach out or drop by.

When I’m not reading personal essays or helping students identify their superpowers, I am probably romping around my backyard with my dogs, trying to finish a book, or thinking about my garden.
