Alexus Cazares

Hi, we’re Alexus & Michi — a lesbian couple sharing our PhD journey in Oʻahu, Hawaiʻi 🌴

We share:
🎓 Grad school tips— from demystifying the application process to winning fellowships like the NSF GRFP
✨ Mindful productivity, personal growth, and finding balance as students
📹 PhD vlogs — BTS look into academia, PhD lifestyle, and life in Hawaii

Our mission is to help ambitious students, especially those from underrepresented groups, thrive in academia, become the best versions of themselves, and do it all without burning out. We share practical advice based on our own personal experiences and what we have learned, mindset shifts that have helped us, and adventures along the way. Whether you're interested in graduate school or already in the thick of it, this space is for you!
