1:1 Consulting

Individual Consulting for Masters and Doctoral Students

During the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, many individuals in isolation chose to increase their engagement with media during this period. (Day, 2023)

A research report commissioned by Fandom.com, found that there was a year-to-year increase of 54% of self-identified fans who used entertainment to cope with stress of social isolation or mentally relax (Paul, 2020). 

This significant increase in individuals coping with stress specifically through the seeking out of entertainment is quite telling and can possibly inform further academic research. (Day, 2023)

With that being said, if you are interested in a master’s or doctoral degree focused on pop culture, but feel overwhelmed with the possibilities, we can help. We provide free, one-on-one sessions.

We’ve been there - we turned geeky passions into meaningful research. 

Our 1:1 consulting assists with hurdles such as:

  • overcoming writer’s block

  • generating ideas

  • finding a supportive advisor

We are your trusted mentors and league of allies ready to guide you through the journey, providing reassurance and a clear path to your goals.
