Guiding scholars to brighter futures
I help scholars design the meaningful writing lives they want.
You became a scholar because you love ideas, learning, and making a meaningful contribution to the world through your work. Writing is one of the most powerful ways you do that.
And yet, academia’s high-pressure environment—with its relentless demands and systemic barriers—can leave you feeling like there's no time or energy left for the writing that matters most. The kind of writing that drew you to this work in the first place.
But it doesn’t have to be this way.
Through scholarly writing and career coaching, we work together to help you rise above the challenges of academia, rediscover your inner brilliance, and better the world around you through your work.
Hi, I’m Jenn.
I’m an author, teacher, and writing and career coach who helps scholars create the bright futures they want. I’m a former academic who went from struggling as a writer early on in graduate school to thriving in a faculty position.
I now support scholars in pursuing their most meaningful work without compromising their values and goals. As your coach, I’ll help you develop the tools and mindsets needed to succeed in academia or in the wide world beyond the ivory tower on your terms!
How can I support you?
