Funding Research Package

$397.00

Identify high-value funding opportunities without spending weeks searching.

Save valuable time and eliminate the guesswork from your funding search.

Proposal Review & Strategy

$497.00

Leave with greater confidence knowing your proposal has been reviewed strategically—not just proofread.

Submitting a competitive funding proposal requires more than strong writing—it requires a clear strategy, alignment with funder priorities, and a compelling narrative. The Proposal Review & Strategy service provides personalized, in-depth feedback on your scholarship, fellowship, dissertation funding, or research grant application to help you strengthen your proposal before submission.

Prior to our consultation, I conduct a comprehensive review of your proposal and supporting materials. During our one-on-one strategy session, we'll discuss your proposal's strengths, identify opportunities for improvement, and prioritize revisions that enhance clarity, organization, and competitiveness. Rather than simply pointing out what to change, you'll gain a deeper understanding of why those revisions matter from a reviewer's perspective so you can strengthen both your current and future funding applications.
