As a certified coach, I specialize in helping individuals navigate extraordinarily complex challenges.

My expertise lies in performing internet research and information processing for individuals facing legal issues, traumatic events, or dealing with public scrutiny.

INTERNET RESEARCH:
When a crisis or complex situation arises, you need answers, and you need them fast. Unfortunately, finding credible information to inform your answers can be next to impossible—especially when your world is being turned upside down. This is where my work comes into play.

I understand how to search, absorb, and simplify highly complex information so that you can grasp it. More importantly, I know how to outthink sophisticated algorithms designed to keep the most helpful information hidden in the furthest corners of the web.

INFORMATION PROCESSING:
Ultimately, my job is to make sure you have as much of the right information to confidently make informed decisions best for you.

Over the years, I've learned that having access to the right information is truly valuable when you know how to apply it and anticipate what to expect.

During this aspect of my coaching, I like to think of myself as your second brain.

When your world is being bombarded from seemingly every side, I offer nuanced, context-driven support to assist you in processing, understanding, and thoughtfully navigating your circumstances so that you can reclaim your peace-of-mind.
