“Working with Dr. Bronson made the dissertation process easier and manageable. She cut through all the chaos to help me focus on the next section so I could keep moving forward. It was so overwhelming when I tried to grasp everything that I still needed to do. I found I became paralyzed by the entire project because I needed to add new tools to my repertoire. But Dr. Bronson encouraged me to just focus on the next section, the next step, and sometimes even the next paragraph. She knew where I was at all times, and prepared me for the next steps, so I just trusted her and I did it, I finished.”
