Working with students is the most rewarding part of research life. I advise PhD students both formally (committee member) and informally (1:1 conversations). A PhD is a unique personal and intellectual journey. I help PhD students manage the anxieties of PhD life, make impactful research contributions, and find their own unique style and voice as a researcher.

If you are a PhD student with shared research interests, drop me a line at passi [dot] samir [at] gmail [dot] com.
