Meet Sarah
I’m a PhD student in Software Engineering at Carnegie Mellon.
My favorite part about being a researcher is the joy of asking open-ended questions. This mindset steered me through many different experiences: litigation consulting, cybersecurity, and K-12 STEM tutoring, to name a few.
Eventually, I found a clear throughline leading to my current research in computational law and teaching interests in computer science pedagogy. I am so grateful to the Fearless Grad program for its clear and thoughtful coaching framework. The program helped me clarify a meaningful research vision and build a pragmatic plan for grad school. I’m excited to work with aspiring PhDs to dig deep and ask about the intentional why’s and practical how’s of the PhD process and beyond!
I am a Libra sun and Gemini rising, which speaks to my values of being well-rounded and staying curious. I'm always seeking how to balance out a situation, and I love inquisitive conversations that unite depth and play.
FAQS
What do financial consultants do?

How do I choose a financial consultant?
When choosing a financial consultant, it is important to consider their experience, qualifications, and fees. You should also make sure that you feel comfortable working with them and that they understand your financial needs and goals.
What is the difference between a financial consultant and a financial planner?
Financial consultants and financial planners are both financial professionals who can help you manage your finances. However, there is a key difference between the two. Financial consultants typically focus on providing advice on specific financial products and services, such as investments, insurance, and retirement planning. Financial planners, on the other hand, take a more holistic approach to financial planning and can help you develop a comprehensive financial plan that covers all areas of your financial life, such as budgeting, debt management, and estate planning.
