Academic Support

Short Bio

I’m Hannah, a doctoral student in Auburn University’s HDFS program. I completed my first, second and third degrees in 2007, 2018 and 2023 from Yaba College of Technology, Lagos, Nigeria, University of South Africa, Pretoria, South Africa, and Auburn University, Alabama respectively. I worked in administration/human resources/mental health for over a decade prior to pursuing my current graduate study at Auburn. Having gone through many transitions myself, I understand the challenges of transitioning into a new system and its impact on life generally. I look forward to helping you through your transitions as you navigate balancing the demands of academics through your journey at Auburn University!

Study Tip:  If it’s worth doing at all, it’s worth doing well! Identify your study style early and stick to what works for you once identified.

Advice to AU Students: Stay true to yourself. Know your academic strengths and don’t shy away from your weaknesses. Nothing beats planning! Plan for success early and put in the work for the success you want to see. Ask for help and connect with resources available on campus at no cost!

Coaching Style: My work as a coach is centered on the belief that you are the expert on your journey while I am there to support you through. This means we will collaborate to co-create your goals and work towards achieving them. My aim is to create a safe, empathic, and supportive space for you to share your challenges, discover your strengths, and thrive as a student at Auburn University. I look forward to working with you as you work towards achieving your educational milestones.
