Hey, I'm Katelyn!
Founder & CEO of The Curly Scientist, LLC
I am a first-gen STEM student, the first engineer, & now the first doctoral candidate in my family.
Take it from someone who has been through the trenches of STEM. Anything that could go wrong during my degree programs did and I want to ensure that does not happen to you!
Testimonials
"The application tracker helps you keep your application materials and progress organized. It even provides guidance for comparing your target programs and schools to help you find the right fit!"
-Diana R.
"After using the Job Hunt Workbook and Tracker, I felt more confident about starting the job hunt process on my own. The resources and tools inside are unmatched and helped me prepare for each interview. I have 2 internship offers at 2 companies! Thank you Katelyn!"
-Kristen T.
About Me
When I was applying to grad school, I realized minority students are unaware of how to navigate many aspects of higher-education.
Once I shared my grad school journey on Instagram, the messages from students started pouring in. Students needed help with choosing a research topic, finding funding, job/internship hunting, and the list goes on!
The Curly Scientist serves as a platforn where students on all levels can find a multitude of resources to help them along their STEM journey!
