Fulbrighter Consulting
Traditional dancers in the Maramures region of Romania. June 2024.
​My mission with David’s Fulbrighter Consulting (DFC) is to serve others by providing expert consulting, workshops and application reviewing for those interested in earning a prestigious U.S. Fulbright Program grant. The U.S. Fulbright program is widely accepted in academic circles as being one of the most prestigious and respected international exchange grants. Being a Fulbrighter means you are among the best and brightest in your field.
As the Fulbright grant selection process is highly competitive, my aim is to assist qualified applicants in securing a grant by reviewing/editing applications. I also provide the skills required to obtain a grant through my “Best Practices” application workshop (for the Scholar and Specialist grants only).
These services are provided for Americans wishing to conduct research/teaching projects overseas and for non-Americans wanting to implement a grant in the United States. I primarily work with the Scholar grant (for research, teaching or research/teaching projects) and its various offshoots: Distinguished Scholar, Postdoctoral Awards and Administrator Awards. I can also assist with Student grants (for conducting research), Specialist grants (short term consulting/training grants) as well as assisting the English Teaching Assistant (ETA) grant with general consulting (per hour via Zoom/Phone) and formal application reviews.
As a Fulbright alum (Ukraine/Scholar grant, Romania/Scholar grant and Mongolia/Specialist grant), I deeply respect the Fulbright mission of dialogue and mutual understanding between cultures. My favorite and most memorable work experiences in higher education have been with Fulbright. I have found teaching abroad be transformative both personally and professionally, while also making an impact alongside the communities I have served.
I enjoy serving and helping others as they navigate the application process and/or partake in workshops. Being a three-time Fulbright Scholar peer reviewer has given me tremendous insight into the many details of a successful application. My goal is to see clients flourish and obtain this prestigious grant.
As a side-note, I conduct all workshops and reviews myself using my specific expertise. I do not hire others to do this work. For now, this is a small scale do-it-yourself operation.
Please let me know if you have any further questions. I look forward to hearing from and working alongside you through the Fulbright process.
