I’m a mental health and integration coach who helps people explore their inner worlds, make meaning of their experiences, and find alignment within themselves. I coach individuals who are navigating psychedelic experiences, transitions, identity shifts, and big inner questions. I also research mental health, psychedelics, and music, and design technology and AI systems that help people make sense of their emotional landscapes.

I grew up in Lake Tahoe, California. I don't particularly like to ski, but I have learned to appreciate the cold of winter and the stillness of snow. I studied psychology, played rugby, and played saxophone at Stanford University. I love trees, large bodies of water, dogs, trail running, music, and doing nothing. 

I began my professional journey into the world of psychedelic science and healing in 2017, started coaching in 2020, have primarily worked worked with folks engaged in ketamine therapy, medicinal cannabis, and psilocybin clinical trials. My research background is grounded in clinical psychology, neuroscience, pain and addiction, and early childhood trauma. I've spent years studying how people make meaning, how consciousness shifts, and how music, language, and interpersonal presence shape the healing process.

Beyond studying people, emotions and perceptions, I like to sit with them.
I love to provide space for people to listen to the parts of themselves they’d been trained to suppress.
I love to be with people when they allow themselves to truly feel how they feel and be who they are. 

Without judgement. Without an agenda. 

Everything I do is rooted in love and curiosity for what it means to be conscious, emotional, human, powerful, and alive.

My areas of coaching expertise are: 

• Psychedelics as catalysts for meaning-making
• Technology that helps (not replaces) the human therapeutic process
• Inner exploration as resistance to numbing culture
• The wisdom of the so-called “dysfunctional” parts
• How identity unravels and reforms
• What it means to know oneself
