Leadership & Resilience 

I help senior military leaders, executives, founders, entrepreneurs, and elite-performing professionals operating in complex, high-stakes environments—including defense, cyber, technology, and similarly demanding domains—move from burnout, extreme stress, fragmentation, and reactive survival to clarity, resilience, and the capacity to genuinely thrive. This includes improved decision-making, psychological flexibility, and sustained high performance under sustained stress without burning out.

My own lived experience navigating extreme responsibility, burnout, extreme stress, repeated leadership transitions, as well as personal and professional challenges, showed me that high performers often succeed outwardly while silently carrying psychological strain. I care deeply about helping individuals at the highest levels of elite performance move beyond endurance alone toward sustainable thriving by addressing the human and relational dimensions often overlooked in elite performance cultures.

I bring together almost three decades of senior military and operational leadership in high-stakes environments with formal doctoral training in clinical psychology, published work on leadership and systems, and extensive experience mentoring individuals through complex decisions, personal and professional challenges, identity transitions, and sustained performance demands. I approach leadership and performance challenges not as abstract theory, but as lived human problems requiring both psychological insight and operational realism.
