Biography
My work is dedicated to helping people in high-pressure performance settings learn to thrive. I specialize in the application of evidence based tools and strategies rooted in the science of peak performance, neuroscience, stress management, stress inoculation, mindfulness and best practice in leadership development and communication. In addition, I draw on all that I have learned about the underlying processes utilized by top performers I have consulted with, interviewed and observed in action. From physicians and surgeons, elite athletes, CEO’s and tactical police officers, I have worked with some outstanding human performers in very challenging performance settings. The lessons from which I have shared widely over the years through individual and group consultations, academic teaching, conference presentations, and workshops. There is a saying “you can’t stop the waves but you can learn to surf”. That idea has been central to my professional philosophy. I am in the business of assisting performers to become better prepared and more resilient in the face of challenges and to help optimize their performance potential and personal wellbeing.
