I am a researcher and educator who’s spent the past two decades studying learning, human potential, and emotional intelligence. I am not a therapist. I’m a guide, supporting you through curated learning experiences of self-discovery and growth.

My first skills-based college course, Developing Your Emotional Intelligence, demonstrated increased student well-being. I have taught thousands of people how to lead a good life with greater happiness, better relationships, less stress, and improved well-being.

Life Stories are Data.

Every person is an original. The inflection points along the arc of a life story are data, informing what we know, why we know it, and what is left to learn. I like that. I hope you do, too.
