Built things.
Left things.
Learned everything.

I've co-founded a ClimateTech startup, scaled Tesla's global delivery operations, lived off a van and a catamaran, written a book about it, and raised a baby through all of it. Now I help people figure out what's next... in their careers, their lives, or both.

"I didn't exit the overculture because things got hard. I exited because I finally understood what I actually wanted."


Where do you want to go?

01

​You're in ClimateTech and something isn't right

Career clarity for mid-career professionals who want their work to actually matter. I have been inside the ecosystem. I know the map.

02

​You're pregnant or newly a mother and overwhelmed

Real information, no judgment. I wrote the guide I wish had existed, covering what conventional sources skip or sugarcoat.

03

​You're questioning conventional life and wondering what else exists

I have lived it. Van, catamaran, 100 acres off-grid in Oregon. Off Grid and On Purpose is the practical, honest version of that story.
I grew up in metro Detroit. Funded my own education. Built a startup from nothing, raised venture capital, spoke at two White House events, and was named Forbes 30 Under 30 before 30. Then Elon Musk told me good job and I still couldn't shake the feeling that something was off.

The years that followed were the most instructive of my life. I learned how to forage for chickweed, how to live on $432 a month, how to leave when leaving is the only right move, and how to rebuild without performing the rebuilding. I'm still building. Most of it is working.
