How it works
Five steps, no surprises.
The process is deliberately unremarkable. You always know what happens next, what it costs, and what is expected of you.
Scope and cost
You fill in a short form: where you are starting, your design, your deadline, and what you need help with. It takes a few minutes. I read it myself and reply in writing with what the work involves, what it does not, and one flat price. If what you need is smaller than you thought, I will say so. Nothing is owed for asking, and nothing is committed until you accept the price.
Full-service consultation
Clarify, analyze, write, defend. The work runs in stages: methodology and instruments where they are still open, data screening and assumptions, the analyses your questions require, APA tables and figures, and a plain-language write-up of every result. Each stage comes with the reasoning, so you can say why each choice was made and what the numbers do and do not show. I support your results chapter and prepare you for the questions your committee will ask.
Unlimited support
Ask as much as you want, for as long as the project runs. Committee revisions are included, before and after your proposal defense and after your final defense. Extra analyses your committee asks for are included. The price you agreed is the price, however many rounds it takes.
Working together
What I need from you, and what you keep
From you
- Your data, your instruments, and your committee's written feedback.
- Your research questions and hypotheses as they currently stand.
- A willingness to ask basic questions, as many times as it takes.
- Honesty about your deadline.
What stays yours
- Authorship. You write your dissertation; I support the methods and analysis.
- Your data. It stays between us and is never sent to an AI company.
- The understanding. Everything is explained until you can defend it in your own words.
- The files. Syntax, output, and tables are yours to keep and re-run.
Practical details
Software, timing, and working style
Software. SPSS, R, and Excel are the common ones; I also work in other standard packages when your program requires them. If your school expects a specific tool, we use that one, and you get the syntax or output files.
Timing. Turnaround depends on the design and on where you are in the term. Tell me your deadline at intake and I will tell you honestly whether it is realistic before you pay anything.
Everything in writing. The work runs through the form and email, so every decision and explanation is written down for you to reread. Fully async engagements cost 25% less. How that works
Step one takes five minutes
Fill in the intake form. Nothing is committed until you have a flat-rate price in hand and you accept it.
