Ph.D. Andrea Lyn Sims

The author’s journey from GED to Ph.D. reflects her passion for all things education. Her nearly decade working with authors reflects the love of all things publishing. Now she has come out of the shadows and from behind the scenes to courageously share personal stories that mirror the research she found on the impostor phenomenon.

The profiles she created from the research could just as easily have been taken from her life’s experiences. If experience trumps education on the “expert” scale of 10,000 hours, then this author has rightly classified herself as “a classic case,” having clocked over 262,800 hours struggling through the impostor life.
