About

I traced signals for twenty years. Then I learned the hardest network of all — the human brain.

After nearly two decades as a Network Engineer, mastering vast, intricate systems, I transitioned to tackling the most sophisticated network imaginable: the Human brain. It felt like a seamless evolution... until I realized fate had steered me there, not choice.

This path found me when I refused to accept the grim prognosis from psychiatrists & mental health experts for my children. They deemed their conditions untreatable, relegating solutions to heavy medication regimens (what I view as toxic burdens) or declaring therapy futile. “Children like these can't be helped,” they said. But I challenged that narrative. Through Neurofeedback, I empowered my children to thrive, and today, they live unencumbered lives.

With six years of hands-on practice under my belt, I formalized my expertise into a professional venture a year ago, eager to extend this transformative approach to others. Now, I'm dedicated to supporting individuals with autism, speech challenges, traumatic brain injuries (TBIs), ADHD, and beyond—unlocking potential where others see limits.

What I practice

LENS — the Low Energy Neurofeedback System. I offer both Head LENS, which works with the brain directly, and Body LENS, which works along the nervous system out in the body. We decide together what fits you.
