Blaine,

Is your dissertation available? What if someone is interested in reading it? What was your topic exactly?

Hi Blaine... I suggest you create a new Discussion on our Forum and ask your question about research of the entire membership. That will give your offer wide exposure.

Welcome Blaine! Great to see you here on the social networks for Transition U.S. and Transition California. You highlighted in your profile "... You tell me. I am likewise here to learn. I do have research and writing skills; plus access to lots of information. How can I help you?..." -- Well, I'd suggest that you create a Group/Link to your Center -- making it visible to our wider group. Congrats on finishing the dissertation. Do you have some parts of the dissertation that could be "published" here in discussions? That would be super.
