Why Choose KvK Pathways for Student Mentorship and Coaching?
I empower prospective and current students to confidently navigate their academic journey, overcome challenges, and achieve academic success.
Thinking about Grad School, or Already in the Thick of It?
Graduate studies come with unique academic and personal demands that often go beyond what a traditional supervisor can provide. Whether you’re applying or already deep into your program, dedicated mentorship offers broader, holistic support. My academic expertise combined with my certification as a personal coach will support you effectively.
Why Work with a Graduate Student Mentor?
From helping you overcome imposter syndrome to staying on track with your academic progress and mental well-being, to asking key questions, I provide guidance that complements your supervisory relationship and helps you thrive throughout your program.
Deep Expertise, Real Support
Having directed an MA program in International Migration for nearly 20 years and having personally supervised over 300 master’s dissertations and 20 PhD students, I bring a deep understanding of what graduate students really need to succeed.
Thinking about Undergrad in Europe, or already there?
Studying abroad can be very fulfilling, but also come with its own challenges. I have been there myself, and have mentored hundreds of students studying abroad for the first time. I support students on many issues, ranging from understanding the grading system to a different style of paper-writing to developing a community of friends to overcoming culture shock, and more.
Academic Insight with Global Perspective
With degrees from Harvard (AB) and Georgetown (MA and PhD) and international teaching and research experience, I offer both strategic insight and compassionate mentorship grounded in real academic experience.
