i make the unconscious conscious

I am a creative mentor, a narrative engineer, and a process developer. I don’t offer cookie-cutter guidance; my purpose is to help you discover and nurture your own personalized creative system—one that feels natural, sustainable, and powerful. Together, we’ll find unconventional solutions already hidden in your process. We’ll embrace your “bad” ideas, dismantle or embrace the road blocks, and turn your perceived flaws into your greatest strengths. We get your project moving again not by forcing it, but by liberating it, allowing you to create with ease, flow, and unshakable confidence.

i blend the analytical with the intuitive

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been fascinated by the systems that run beneath the surface—both in machines and in people. With over 10 years of experience as a private educator and a separate 10 years as a software engineer, I have honed my ability to diagnose and resolve the most human and most technical problems. This dual perspective is the foundation of my practice.

My time in software engineering taught me to see complex systems, find the root cause of any bug, and appreciate that a single misplaced line of code can bring everything to a halt. My years as an educator taught me that every person has a unique learning process, that true growth is never linear, and that the most profound breakthroughs often come from a place of play and genuine connection.

I am not your typical consultant. I call myself a narrative engineer and a creative mentor because I blend the analytical with the intuitive. I apply a developer’s precision to deconstructing the creative blocks that hold you back, and a teacher’s patience to nurturing the brilliant, messy, and authentic process that is uniquely yours. My work is to help you debug your creative code, rediscover your innate genius, and build a system for your work that doesn’t just function, but truly flows.

embrace your mess, your genius

At the heart of my creative consulting and mentoring practice lies a deep-seated belief in the power of embracing your unique, and often unconventional, creative process. I guide and nurture writers, artists, and creators of all kinds to unearth their innate genius—that “superpower” you possess but may have been taught to suppress. My approach is to champion the messy, the “bad,” and the seemingly flawed aspects of your work, for it is in these spaces that your truest and most potent voice resides. I see myself as a “narrative loophole lawyer,” helping you to artfully sidestep the rigid rules and self-imposed limitations that stifle your natural expression.

My methodology is rooted in the idea of “narrative life design,” where we explore the powerful connection between your personal stories and your creative output. Through one-on-one sessions, I help you discover and nurture your unique style so you can create with more ease and joy. In dynamic workshops, we engage in playful and liberating exercises, from “bad writing” sessions to “trope innovation,” all designed to dismantle perfectionism and reignite your creative spark.

Ultimately, my role is to act as a mirror, reflecting back to you the brilliance you already possess. I provide a supportive and non-judgmental space for you to experiment, to fail forward, and to rediscover the joy in your creative practice. Whether you’re feeling stuck, struggling with self-doubt, or simply seeking a fresh perspective, I am here to help you navigate the intricate landscape of your own creativity, empowering you to not only create compelling work but to also live a more creatively fulfilled life.

the mess is where the magic happens

It begins in the messy, brilliant chaos of your inner world. A project that feels stuck, a story that wants out, or a creative impulse that refuses to follow the rules. Maybe you have a project to share with the world, or maybe the project is you, and the story you need to tell is your own. You feel the pull toward something more, but the path is unclear, guarded by old wounds and a relentless inner critic.

your unique path

That feeling of being “stuck” is actually a signal. It’s your subconscious putting its foot down, telling you there’s a more authentic, more powerful way forward. Your weirdness isn’t weird—it’s the signature of your genius. The way you create is as unique as a fingerprint, and trying to adopt someone else’s process is like trying to write with the wrong hand.
