Your wisdom is already here. Let's give it a voice.

You didn't get into the work you do for surface-level impact. You're here because you believe people can change... and you've seen it happen.

But belief isn't enough when others don't understand why your work matters.

You don't need to reinvent your expertise. You need to clarify it. You need language that makes people stop, listen, and finally see what you've been offering all along.

Your intuition has always guided your best work.

The moments when you sense what someone needs before they say it. The interventions that come from somewhere deeper than your training. The knowing that arrives in your body before your mind catches up.

These aren't accidents. They're your nervous system's sophisticated intelligence at work.

And when you understand the science behind that wisdom, something shifts.

The Science Behind What You Already See

Most of us were trained to look outward for validation—for the right method, the right certification, the right language. But the human nervous system is an extraordinarily sophisticated instrument. It reads rooms, detects incongruence, anticipates threat, and calibrates trust in milliseconds. This isn't mystical. It's measurable.

My approach draws from my years as a researcher—studying the electrical activity of the brain (qEEG), heart rate variability, skin conductance, facial EMG—and translates that science into something you can feel and use. Not as information to memorize, but as a deeper understanding of what your system is already doing.

I've spent 15 years helping leaders and change agents translate their expertise into science-backed frameworks that earn respect, increase buy-in, and position them as go-to experts in their field.

Clients I've worked with have attracted entire teams of coaches who want to join their programs. They've landed stages like TEDx and Mindvalley. They've reached audiences they never knew existed, simply by gaining clarity on their science-informed message.

Where This Work Lives

My clients include MIT, Google, Stanford, the FBI, Northwestern University, Alberta Children's Hospital, and the UC San Diego School of Medicine. I've trained in monasteries with meditation masters from India, Africa, and Vietnam, and spent years as an intelligence analyst before becoming a neuroscience educator.

I currently collaborate with MIT's Global Humanities Initiative and the University of Algarve on research exploring the intersection of neuroscience, AI, and human flourishing. I work clinically with brain mapping and neurofeedback for clients from age 4 to 65+. And I run the Neuro Wisdom Collective, a global community where coaches, therapists, and leaders learn to ground their expertise in peer-reviewed science.

This isn't about credentials for credentials' sake. It's about having done the work—in the lab, in the clinic, in the room—so I can help you trust what you've been building.

My graduate research at New York University and fieldwork at the NYU Phelps lab for neuroscience research, the NYU Institute for Prevention Science and Yeshiva University's Albert Einstein College of Medicine focused on the cross-section of self-directed neuroplasticity, emotion regulation, family emotional climates, and empathy. My clients include MIT, Google, Stanford University, the FBI, Northwestern University, Alberta Children’s Hospital, the University of California San Diego School of Medicine, as well as therapists, coaches, educational consultants, district superintendents, CEOs, yoga instructors, osteopaths, and many more.

For the past decade, I've been teaching and consulting in countries all over the world by combining scientific insights and my training in monasteries with meditation masters from India, Africa and Vietnam. I'm also a former intelligence analyst, and a Master Faculty instructor and researcher at Google, where I have consulted on and facilitated global workshops on the Science of Learning and Mindset in London, Chicago, Tel Aviv, Munich and Singapore.

What I Actually Do

I help people who are already skilled at their craft understand the why beneath their intuition.

When you can name what's happening in the nervous system—when you can see the architecture of attention, the mechanics of safety, the neurobiology of connection—you stop second-guessing your instincts. You speak with clarity. You teach with precision. You lead without apology.

The human brain is the most experience-dependent organ on Earth. It was designed to learn, adapt, and evolve. My work is about honoring that design—and helping you access the intelligence you've been building your entire life.
