Meet this week's Grad Chat guest!
"Hi! My name is Dr Emily Roberts (she/her), and I’m tomorrow’s interviewee for Grad Chat!
I am an expert in personal finance for graduate students and early-career PhDs, so our topic is managing finances during your PhD. I LOVE answering questions, so I hope you will join us live and participate! We can talk about taxes, money management, investing, student loans, money mindset and psychology… whatever you like!
Here’s a little more about me: I earned my PhD in biomedical engineering from Duke in 2014. I fell in love with the subject of personal finance during graduate school, and I gradually realized that my peers had a great need for financial education and support that was not being met by the universities or financial services industry. I started my business, Personal Finance for PhDs, shortly after defending.
My business has multiple facets now! I give webinars for universities, host a podcast, coach individuals and small groups, create courses and workshops for individuals, and run a community. The best way to jump in is to join my mailing list. If you do so through this link, you’ll receive a PDF that details five ways you can improve your finances today as a graduate student or postdoc.
I hope you will join me and Fay for our chat tomorrow! I can’t wait to meet you and field your questions!"
