Educationally: sociologist and political scientist. Professionally: Transformational Coach. Naturally: Rebel

Dr. Maggie Gilewicz aka Dr. Maggie G. educationally is a sociologist and political scientist. Professionally she is a Transformational Coach. Naturally, she is a rebel (in the most positive sense). After many years spent in academia, both as a student and as a teacher, she came to a realization that while schools, colleges, are preparing young people for a degree or an occupation, there's virtually nothing in their curricula that would prepare these young people for life after graduation. This needs to change and through writing about it, teaching and speaking, she is on a mission to change that. She's currently working on her book and has developed a course/workshop which focuses on students well-being and teaches them tools and ideas on how to make best choices in their personal and professional life, teaches them how to design their future after graduation (which goes far beyond the traditional "career advice") and how to create a fulfilling life. Otherwise, she loves to read and to travel. She enjoys good food and always has a need to sing songs of Ella Fitzgerald after a glass of wine or two.
