I love mentoring and giving feedback and would love to help you take your scholarly work to the next level. If you have any questions or are at all interested, I've written a bit more about these services at heatherannswadley.com. And I'm happy to talk more!

Why me? Well, first, a student once told me that I made an article about civ pro "fun to read." However, on a more serious note, these are all things I've worked at my whole life, and I would like to think I've learned some valuable lessons on how to give feedback along the way.

3. I am also available to read and edit your law review articles. As a former Lead Articles Editor, I know the criteria that students tend to look for when placing pieces and want to work with you to place your article well in an increasingly competitive market.

2. I'm providing book manuscript developmental editing services. This means looking at the "big picture" areas like structure, argument, and evidence, and helping you produce a manuscript that will be convincing/make you proud/hopefully get you tenure!

1. I'm going to provide archival support to people who need resources in DC or the surrounding area. I will strategize with you using a finding aid, discuss your needs, and catalogue the materials you need in an effective way, flagging things that would be useful.

Alice Wong. i could literally teach an entire semester of philosophy of technology & disability through a lens of just her. You should all go spend time with her work. Her essays, podcasts, TV appearances, books, all of it; it is all so good.

Good night Alice. Rest in power, pending justice & peace

congress is a russian nesting doll of counter-majoritarian structures. seems to me that there's no need for a supermajority rule on top of that!
