  <body>Hi, All. I&#8217;m not a big contributor to Lightstalkers but I&#8217;m hoping to change that. My name is Bryan Shih and, while I&#8217;m not developing myself as a photographer, I run my own business advising folks (mostly from outside the US) on how to apply successfully to graduate/MBA programs and for grants and scholarships. It&#8217;s a strange niche, but I&#8217;ve had a lot of success over the years both personally (Fulbright Fellowship, full scholarship to UC Berkeley J-school, et. al.) and professionally. I&#8217;ve also gotten way more out of the discussion boards than I have contributed and I would love to give something back. If anyone is applying for a grant, scholarship, fellowship, etc. and would like me to review it, I am happy to do so at no charge. I'll give you the best advice I can. I might have to put some limitations on how much I can do, but for now please e-mail me if you&#8217;re interested (bryan@elite-essays.com).</body>
