How To Grad School

✌️Re-Introduction Post!

I'm Sarah Davis (she/they) and I founded How To Grad School in 2020 to help grad students improve their learning and well-being by using effective self-regulated learning strategies.

I live with my family, including my dog Tiller, on Vancouver Island, BC, on the traditional territory of the Lekwungen Peoples and the WSANEC and Esquimalt nations.

I'm more comfortable behind the camera and love incorporating the views from hikes around Vancouver Island on the How To Grad School social media accounts.

In my free time, I love playing hockey, paddleboarding, hiking, snorkelling, spending time with family and friends, laughing, reading, and going for walks with my dog around our neighbourhood.

In the last year, I've been playing A LOT of Zelda (both Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom).

During my PhD, I co-founded an improv group with an incredible group of improvisers that performed for two years.

This year, I have a goal to read 20 books by Indigenous authors.

My favourite ongoing podcast is Ask Ronna, and my two favourite podcast series are Finding Cleo and The Outlaw Ocean.

Who are these people for you as a grad student?

Sometimes they are fellow grad students or colleagues, other times they are your family and community.

Whoever they are, make sure you surround yourself with people who care about you.

You deserve it.
