For people and organizations who have outgrown the story that once made sense.
You're in liminal space. The old narratives no longer fit, but the new ones haven't fully formed. You need more than tips and techniques—you need someone who can help you design the conditions for new possibilities to emerge.
I work as a cultural architect and liminal space guide, helping individuals and organizations navigate transitions, design emergent futures, and build stories worth living into.
Cultural Architecture, Not Self-Help .
I don't offer quick fixes or five-step programs. This is studio work—collaborative, iterative, designed for people who think in systems and futures, not just symptoms and solutions.
Drawing from narrative therapy, futuring practices, and critical theory, I help you:
Recognize when a story has outlived its usefulness
Navigate the disorientation of transitions without rushing to premature closure
Design the chronotopes (time-space patterns) that will scaffold the life you're actually trying to live
Build futures worth inhabiting, not just escape routes from the present
This isn't therapy as usual. It's compositional work. We're building something dangerous together.

I work at the intersection of narrative therapy, futuring practices, and critical cultural theory—helping people and organizations navigate the disorienting space between the story that no longer fits and the one that hasn't yet formed.
