Sarah makes you do the work, not the reviewers
“So often, the really important information is buried deep in the grant because we don't really know what we're doing, on some level, and it comes out in the grant.
Sarah makes you really think through what you want to do. She makes you do the work, not the reviewer.
Sarah’s training offers a clear, focused approach, and she provides a framework to help you do what you need to do to get the reviewers interested in your project.”
- PhD, Vanderbilt University
