A Few Things to Know
-
I’m not a professional advisor, just a senior scholar offering informal guidance.
-
I don’t review projects or articles, and I don’t help find PhD positions.
-
My time is limited, so this isn’t a fast-track service, but I’ll do my best to respond as soon as possible and help you brainstorm ideas.
