About

Passionate About Helping You Succeed

The Schumann Group was founded to bridge two worlds: academic research and small business consulting. For the past three years, I’ve worked with graduate students across the globe, helping them simplify complex research tasks and successfully complete their dissertations.

 

At the same time, I counsel entrepreneurs in the U.S. — from crafters and artists to healthcare providers and digital marketers — guiding them through the business planning process. Many clients feel overwhelmed or even fearful when faced with financials, marketing plans, and spreadsheets. My role is to break down the complexity and show them it can be done well.

What sets me apart is my commitment to integrity, ethics, and attention to detail. I don’t charge by the hour. Instead, my fees are based on the true value I bring to your project.

 

If you’re looking for a partner who combines academic expertise, business acumen, and a genuine passion for your success, you’re in the right place.

 

Are you ready to embark on this journey? Together, we can start the next chapter of your life.
